Clearspring Japanese Hokkaido Kombu Dried Sea Vegetable - 40g

Description

Kombu is a traditional dried sea vegetable widely used in Japanese cuisine to enhance soups, noodle broths and stocks such as dashi. These thick, wide strips of Laminaria japonica are naturally rich in glutamic acid, an umami-providing amino acid that deepens flavour and brings out the taste of other ingredients.

Simply add a strip while cooking beans, grains or broths to naturally enhance flavour and improve texture. Kombu is ideal for home cooks seeking authentic Asian flavours and those looking to add mineral-rich sea vegetables to their everyday meals.
