Step:

  1. Tear sushi nori in small pieces. (As small as possible) Add water into a pot and teared nori. Leave for a half hour until nori gets soft.

  2. Add soy sauce, sake, mirin, honey and soup stock powder into the same pot and start heating. Once boiled, lower heat to low. Cook until boiled down. (I cooked for approx.30 mins.)

  3. Serve on top of cooked rice!!

  4. FYI : Japanese dashi stock powder - I love this brand “Kayanoya”, available online. https://usa.kayanoya.com/kayanoya-original-dashi-stock-powder.html
