Description

Dried kombu is an essential ingredient in traditional Japanese cooking. It contributes briny flavor to dashi stock, which is used in many Japanese sauces and noodle soup bases. It can also be used to soften beans, which may make them a little easier to digest. Familiar to sushi enthusiasts from its use in miso soup, Wakame is also used in seaweed salads. Emerald Cove Wakame is ready-to-eat and can be tossed right out of the bag into miso soup! Because of its superior alkalinity, Wakame is extremely beneficial in helping maintain the alkaline/acid balance necessary for a healthy human body.
