These flakes from Matoba Suisan are made from katsuobushi known as Arabushi, which is skipjack tuna that has been poached and smoked. They are a wonderful addition to any dish as a topping. You can add a smoky, slightly salty, umami rich savoriness by simply sprinkling on top of dishes like ramen, Takoyaki, Agedashi tofu, and more.

Each step in creating Katsuobushi Flakes is done by hand, demonstrating Matoba-san’s dedication to artisanal, traditional production methods.
