Dashi Stracciatella

This dashi stracciatella offers a sophisticated Japanese twist on the classic Italian egg drop soup. By replacing traditional chicken stock with a homemade dashi base, the dish gains an elegant, smoky depth of flavour that pairs beautifully with the delicate ribbons of cooked egg. Fresh spinach adds a vibrant colour and nutritional boost, while a finishing touch of chilli oil provides a gentle heat that cuts through the rich umami broth.

A perfect choice for a light lunch or a nutritious starter, this dairy-free soup is both comforting and incredibly quick to assemble once your stock is prepared. The combination of protein-rich eggs and iron-packed spinach makes it a healthy, restorative meal. Serve it alongside fresh lemon wedges to brighten the savoury notes and enhance the delicate aromas of the seaweed and bonito.

Ingredients for Dashi Stracciatella

  • 4 (6x4-inch) pieces dried kombu

  • 1 (35g) package bonito flakes (about 725ml )

  • 1 teaspoon white or regular soy sauce

  • Kosher salt

  • 4 large eggs, beaten to blend

  • 3 cups torn mature spinach leaves

  • 1 spring onion, thinly sliced

  • Chilli oil and lemon wedges (for serving)

How to make Dashi Stracciatella

Bring kombu and 1450ml cold water to a bare simmer in a large saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and let sit 10 minutes. Return to a bare simmer and add bonito flakes. Remove from heat and let sit 2 minutes. Strain dashi through a fine-mesh sieve lined with 2 layers of cheesecloth into a large bowl.

Wipe out saucepan and pour in dashi. Add soy sauce; season with salt. Bring to a bare simmer over medium-low. Whisk quickly to create a vortex and gradually stream in eggs, pouring in about 1" from edge of pan. Remove from heat and add spinach; stir until wilted. Divide among bowls. Top with spring onion and drizzle with chilli oil. Serve with lemon wedges.
