Our Favourite Seaweed Recipes

Seaweed has long been a popular addition to Asian cuisine, but it has only just begun to break into the mainstream Western food market. For many it conjures up an image of the plants you find washed up on the beach. These sea vegetables are really good for you and can be used in lots of different dishes. There is a misconception that seaweed tends to herald a fishy flavour however, this is not the case. Seaweed has a savoury, complex 'umami' taste, that some find challenging at first, but is actually mild and very palatable.

Check out our favourite seaweed recipes below:

 
Seaweed Salad
Seaweed Salad (via justonecookbook.com)
This type of seaweed salad is common in many Japanese restaurants. We love the miso dressing that is served with it.
Laverbread
Laverbread (or lavabread) is a Welsh way to cook laver seaweed (or japanese nori). Laverbread made by mixing oatmeal, nori, butter and salt into a puree. It can be eaten either as it is or made into little laverbread cakes (as we have done here).
Sushi
The Maki Sushi Roll (pictured) is the most commonly recognised form of sushi. Maki rolls are simply a choice of filling, surrounded by sushi rice, wrapped in a thin sheet of Nori seaweed.
 
Malaysian Laksa
Malaysian Laksa (via thebrightonkitchen.com)
Seaweed makes a great condiment. The salty, umami flavour is ideal for seasoning lots of savoury dishes - including this Malaysian-inspired noodle dish!
Mint Chocolate Chip Seaweed Shake
Do not be put off from using seaweed in sweet recipes! Here, the sweet flavours mask the more savoury flavour of the wakami. Mint and seaweed are also known to help reduce bloating!
Miso and Soba Noodle Soup with Roasted Sriracha Tofu
Noodle soups and seaweed are a match made in heaven! This popular dish is often served in Japan and it tastes delicious.
 
Teriyaki Marinated Salmon, Wakame & Edamame Beans
This super speedy supper is packed with vitamins and essential nutrients! Perfect for these balmy summer nights!
Nori Spiced Potato Crisps
Nori Spiced Potato Crisps (via saltedandstyled.com)
We love the thought of using nori as a seasoning! We sell both nori sheets and flakes - the latter would be ideal for this recipe!
Sunflower Seed 'Vegan-Tuna' Salad
Sunflower Seed 'Vegan-Tuna' Salad (via hotfromthekettle.com)
Seaweed ranges in flavour. Some have a mild, delicate flavour - whilst some have stronger aromas. Those with stronger aromas are ideal for imparting a fish like flavour to vegetarian dishes! Perfect for transitioning vegetarians who miss the taste of fish!
