ICHIBIKI- Straight Matsuya Chicken and Vegetable Miso Hot Pot Soup Base 720g

Description

ICHIBIKI- Straight Matsuya Chicken and Vegetable Miso Hot Pot Soup Base captures the iconic savory-sweet essence of Matsuya-style hot pot—a beloved blend of umami miso, tender chicken, and fresh vegetables. Made with slow straight-boiled chicken stock (for juicy meaty depth), simmered vegetable broth (carrots, onions, cabbage for bright sweetness), aged red miso, mirin, and a hint of ginger, it balances robust miso umami, delicate chicken savoriness, and crisp vegetable freshness, far more authentic than generic miso hot pot bases.
The 720g size is perfect for shared comfort meals: ample enough to serve 4-6 people, making it ideal for family dinners, friend gatherings, or cozy winter feasts. Its layered flavor complements Matsuya-style ingredients—sliced chicken thigh, napa cabbage, tofu, and enoki mushrooms—remaining rich and harmonious even as ingredients release their juices, eliminating the need for extra seasoning mid-cook.
As a ready-to-use base, it eliminates the hassle of simmering dual stocks, fermenting miso, or blending multiple seasonings. No complex preparation needed—just dilute with hot water (per taste) and add ingredients. Keep it handy, and you can whip up a restaurant-worthy Matsuya-style hot pot anytime, turning casual meals into warm, nostalgic communal feasts.
