Kombu or kelp is a large, brown, leaf-shaped seaweed. It is a basic ingredient in Japanese cuisine. The famous dashi stock is drawn from this seaweed, the basis of miso soup. Kombu is rich in iodine and contains many minerals.
Our Kombu is from certified organic cultivation in the Bay of Biscaya in Northern Spain. It is harvested by a passionate family business using sustainable methods with respect for the sea fauna and flora. Samples are extensively tested for heavy metals, pesticides and herbicides, radioactivity and microbiological contamination.
Kombu is traditionally used to flavor water for soup, broth, vegetables, stews, fish, seafood, sauces and other dishes.
The recommended dosage for 1 liter is 2 grams of dried kombu. Boil the kombu for 5 -7 minutes. Remove the kombu from the liquid when it is ready and use only the liquid.
This seaweed can show a white rash when dried. This is a salt rash and quite normal. Just rinse it off.
Organically grown kombu flakes without additives.
