Ingredients:
Smoked Jalapeño Dashi
0.25 cups Pepper Dashi
0.15 cups Smoked jalapeno liquid

Preparation:
Smoked Jalapeno Dashi:
Combine pepper dashi and jalapeño liquid in a mixing bowl stir gently to combine. Taste and season with white soy if needed. Transfer into a plastic container with a law and store under refrigeration for up to two days.

Ingredients:
Pepper Dashi:
0.7 cups Water
0.15 lbs Jalapeño peppers (washed)
3.6 grams Dried kombu
2.1 grams Dried bonito flake
0.6 tsp White soy sauce
0.1 qt Hickory wood chips

Preparation:
Pepper Dashi:
Place wood chips in a strainer and run under cold water until moist. Shake strainer to let excess water drain off. Line a full deep hotel pan with aluminum foil and place a pile of wood chips on one side of the foil. Check smoke chamber and wood chips every 20 minutes. Place hotel pan on a medium heat burner so the wood chips are on top of the flame. Allow the chips to begin to smoke fairly rapidly before turning the heat down to obtain a light consistent smoke stream. Place a shallow perforated hotel pan inside the deep pan with the smoking chips. Spread an even layer of the jalapeño peppers In the shallow pan. Cover the peppers with a inverted shallow hotel pan to form a lid.

Smoke peppers for 1.5 hours maintaining a even light blue colored smoke. If smoke begins to turn a chalky white turn the heat down on the burner. Place water in sauce pot and bring to a simmer. Place kombu and 1/2 of the smoked peppers (remaining half is used for smoked jalapeño liquid) in a plastic container and pour simmering water over them. Cover and let steep for 30 minutes in a warm area. Remove lid and add the bonito flakes and steep for an additional 15 minutes. Strain dashi and chill immediately. When dashi is chilled add white soy to season and reserve.
