Soak the Kombu: Add water and kombu to a medium saucepan and soak for 30 minutes or more.
Make the Dashi: Heat the saucepan over medium heat and gradually bring the water to a simmer. Remove the kombu just before the water reaches a boil.
Use or Store: Use the kombu dashi immediately as a base for soups, stews, or sauces. Let the dashi cool to room temperature if storing, then transfer it to a clean glass jar.
