JAPANESE TSUME AND TARE - NITSUME OR THICK, SWEET EEL SAUCE
This recipe is for the dark sweet sauce served over many types of sushi in restaurants, especially seafood and fish. Tsume is traditionally made with the reduced stock of boiled conger eels (anago). This abbreviated recipe tastes great and takes much less cooking time than the traditional method of preparation. Dashi is a soup and cooking stock considered fundamental to Japanese cooking. Dashi forms the base for Miso Soup, clear broth soups, Japanese noodle broths, and many Japanese simmering liquids. Most people use granulated or liquid instant substitutes found in Asian Markets. A small pastry brush or rubber spatula will allow you to apply this sauce thinly and evenly over your sushi or other choices. American sushi chefs use Tsume to dress everything from avocado-based rolls to tamago. This recipe will keep in the refrigerator for several months. Heat to ambient temperature (or warmer) before use.

EEL SAUCE
Also called Nitsume, Unagi or Kabayaki. It is a sweet and salty sauce that goes great over grilled fish or chicken and is a common drizzle over sushi. Traditionally it is used on Japanese grilled eel and eel rolls. I also use this sauce over fresh cooked noodles for a quick snack. 1/2 cup of dashi may be added to create a richer, more authentic flavor. (Dashi is a fish stock that must be made at home)

Steps:
- Combine in a saucepan and simmer over medium heat reducing the original volume by roughly 80%. Starting with this much Dashi & Sake is important, as the flavor concentrates and turns into that signature Nitsume taste. Once reduced to 2/3 cup it doesn't "thread" while hot, but when cooled to room temperature it has the viscosity of maple syrup. As far as how long the nitsume takes, it all depends on how fast you reduce it. You can probably do it in about an hour. The previous recipes I tried tasted odd and a bit too salty because they had too much shoyu and not enough dashi. This recipe comes as close to perfect as I could make, and beats many of the Nitsumes in the sushi-bars I've been to!" Thank you so much for sharing this, Nick!
