Katsuobushi Bonito Shaver 24 x 10cm x 11cm (9.5″ x 3.75″ x 3.9″)

Katsuobushi Bonito Shaver

The bonito shaver is an essential item for anyone interested in making ‘katsuo-bushi’ out of dried bonito.  The angled blade works to shave thin slices of the katsuo, which are then caught in the drawer below. This shaved ‘katsuo-bushi’ is the base ingredient for making Japanese stock or ‘dashi’.

This item is not limited to only bonito, but can also be used to shave paper thin slices of fresh truffles.
