The high grade 'Yukibushi' fine powder from famous katsuo maker, Tenpaku, is especially easy to use, as you just top your soup, vegetable and rice dishes, or tofu, to be able to enjoy the rich umami and characteristic Japanese flavor. Tenpaku is a bonito specialist now run by the 4th generation. Their products are used by top chefs and restaurants and will allow you to enjoy premium Japanese flavors at home.

    All TENPAKU Products
  • The TENPAKU family has a very long history in making katsuobushi, but only established their own brand in 1946. Now run by the fourth generation, they are one of the very few remaining traditional-style makers of Katsuo products. 

    The current owner, Yukiaki Tenpaku, focuses on quality rather than quantity, and will not let a katsuobushi block leave the warehouse until is has been through all drying, smoking and fermentation cycles to perfection and the fish's natural fat has turned into a beautiful Umami.

    Not surprisingly, Tenpaku katsuobushi is a favorite among  skilled Japanese chefs that do not wish to comprise on quality. And now it is also available to you through NIHON ICHIBAN! We even offer the special wooden grater that allows you to experience the delight of fresh, homemade Katsuobushi flakes wherever you are in the world! 

  • Tenpaku

    Tenpaku is one of the few remaining traditional makers of katsuobushi. The Tenpaku family has a very long history in making katsuobushi but it is only in 1946 that the family established its own business, which now is run by the fourth generation. The current owner Yukiaki Tenpaku is focusing on quality rather than quantity and a bonito block will only be sold after it went through multiple cycles of drying, smoking and fermentation until the fish's natural fat become umami.

    Raw Bonito fillets are first glutted, sliced and simmered in water for about an hour. Fat, scales and bones are then removed from the soft fillets. The fish slices are then smoked on wood to dry and develop a more complex flavor. They then are sun dried and exposed to fermentation with four repetitions to further reduce moisture. Finished Katsuobushi only has 20% of the volume of the original fish fillet.

    Tenpaku katsuobushi is very popular among chefs of high quality restaurants in Kyoto and all over Japan, who do not wish to compromise on quality.

    Chef's in Japan use a whole block to shave fresh flakes, but nowadays also rely on Tenpaku's Bonito Flakes and Dashi Pack when they require speed and good flavor alike.
