Bring Japanese-inspired flavour to your kitchen with Bonito Flakes 500g. Also known as katsuobushi when made from processed skipjack tuna, bonito flakes are a popular ingredient in Japanese cuisine, valued for their delicate texture and rich savoury taste.

Sprinkle them over hot dishes as a topping or use them to prepare flavourful Japanese-style broths. This 500g pack is suitable for home cooks, restaurants, and kitchens that regularly prepare Japanese-inspired meals.

What Are Bonito Flakes Made From?

Bonito flakes are typically made from skipjack tuna that has been processed and shaved into thin flakes. Traditional katsuobushi undergoes specific drying and processing methods that give it its characteristic flavour.

Check the product packaging to confirm the fish species, processing method, ingredients, country of origin, and allergen information for your particular product.
