Yamaguchi no horidashimono soup stock
Peptiderip Co., Ltd. (Yamaguchi)
Named by combining the Japanese words “dashi (soup stock)” and “horidashimono (lucky find),” Yamaguchi no horidashimono made in Yamaguchi Prefecture is an additive-free soup stock made with the prefecture’s special product “Torafugu (tiger globefish).” Peptiderip Co., Ltd. was founded in 1920 as a fish-processing company. While handling nearly one ton of fish every day, the company workers were very sad by wasting a large amount of precious parts such as heads, bones and internal organs that could not be used for processing. As a result, the company produced the peptide soup stock. By creating a machine that uses all the bones and internal organs of the fish from head to tail, it allows the company to not discard any parts and reuse fat and water that cannot be usually used as products for agricultural and industrial purposes. In addition, the company has established and commercialized a technology that decomposes the proteins contained in fish and kombu into peptides without the use of chemicals or additives. By converting protein into peptide form, it has the effect of speeding up the digestion and absorption of nutrients, and has become a useful product in hospitals, pharmacies and facilities for the elderly. This product can be used not only in clear soup and miso soup, but also can be enjoyed as a nutritious soup filled with nutrients such as fish, kombu and shiitake mushrooms just by dissolving it in hot water and drinking it. The contents are in powder form, and you can adjust the amount according to your taste. It is an additive-free product that allows you to enjoy delicious dishes without using salt or umami seasoning.
