Preparing Dried Seaweed

Highly nutritious, dried seaweed is widely used in Japanese cuisine. Toasted dried nori can be crumbled over dishes or used as a wrap; wakame is used in soups, salads and stir-fries.

Toast sheets over a flame or in the oven for a sweet, delicate flavour.

Soak shreds in warm water to reconstitute; drain thoroughly before use.
