Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups dashi
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sake
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon potato starch or cornstarch mixed with 1/2 tablespoon cold water

Instructions
- In a small pot over medium high heat, add the dashi, soy sauce, sake, and salt. Stir well and bring to a boil.
- Turn the heat down to a simmer, give the potato starch and water mix a stir and stir it into the soup.
- Grab some chopsticks and hold them pointing down in the center of the pot, a couple of inches from the soup.
