Osuimono (lit. “things to sip”) is a clear soup that appears simple at a glance, but can be hard to master given the delicate and subtle flavors of its fresh high-quality ingredients. It’s typically served at the end of a meal, before the main course, or as the base for the Japanese New Year’s soup called ozōni.

This luxurious osuimono includes three unique Japanese ingredients: yuba (sweet and buttery tofu skins that are made by warming a bowl of soybean milk and skimming off the top film), mitsuba (also known as Japanese parsley or honeywort with a fresh bitterness reminiscent of celery leaves) and yuzu (Japan’s beloved tart yet sweet citrus fruit). These ingredients are combined with a bonito dashi (soup stock), soy sauce and a pinch of salt to draw out the flavors.

Asuzac Food’s slogan is “Farm to Fork” which is rooted in their philosophy of bringing responsibly sourced vegetables to your table. In order to reliably trace their ingredients, Asuzac Foods owns its own farms in Nagano Prefecture and Vietnam, allowing for them to produce a wide variety of crops based on the local climate, which are freeze-dried to maintain freshness and flavor. They analyze and inspect their pesticides for safety, make their own compost and inspect their soil and fertilizer for the highest quality, all while constantly examining, monitoring and improving their cultivation techniques

Suggested uses: Add the contents to a bowl, pour in 160ml of boiling water and stir.

Subtle Flavor, Perfect after a Meal

I had no idea tofu skins were a thing, but they give this lovely soup a joy to eat, adds a nice slightly chewy texture. Perfect for when I want to have a break from miso soup. I wasn't expecting such a small freeze-dried block of soup to be this good! It's subtle, but has little bits of yuzu that make it refreshing. I sprinkle some of the Kushino Farm Yuzu Zest in it too (also purchased from Kokoro) for an added citrus kick. The individual packs are quite small; so it's not a meal in itself, but a nice addition to, or after a meal.
