Kubarahonke Group (Headquarters: Hisayama-machi, Kasuya-gun, Fukuoka Prefecture; President: Tetsuji Kawabe), through Kubarahonke Co., Ltd., which sells Japanese seasonings such as "Kayanoya Dashi," will launch a new Kayanoya product, the summer limited-edition "Dashi Kaoru Sunomono no Moto," nationwide at Kayanoya stores, mail order, and e-commerce starting May 2026.
This product is a vinegar dressing mix that combines two types of vinegar with domestic kombu and bonito dashi, and adds citrus juice. With a mellow and refreshing acidic taste, it allows for easy preparation of sunomono (vinegared dishes) with cucumbers and wakame seaweed. It was developed as a sister product to the "Asazuke no Moto," which was well-received as a summer limited-edition product last year. We hope you will add it to your new lineup for a refreshing summer.
Product Features
Sunomono with dashi umami.
Uses domestic kombu dashi and bonito dashi. By suppressing the sharp acidity of vinegar and adding depth with dashi umami, it has a taste that is easy for anyone to enjoy.
Easily add another dish to your hot summer meal.
Even those unfamiliar with sunomono can easily create a dish highlighting the umami of dashi by simply preparing ingredients such as octopus, cucumber, and wakame seaweed and mixing them with this product. Since it's a simple cooking method that doesn't require heat, you can easily prepare another dish even on hot days.
Enrich your summer dining with arrangements.
In addition to basic mixed dishes, it pairs perfectly with summer vegetables such as yam, okra, and myoga ginger. The back of the package also introduces arrangement recipes for deliciously incorporating seasonal vegetables.
