A Review by 'Random Food' blog
We had a review of our seaweed flakes on a blog called Random Food by Lynsey Clayton. Helpful for the seaweed novice, the blog takes you through the different varieties and gives an example of a dish they each work well in. Kombu was added to onion and parsnip soup, Shony sprinkled over her favourite mushroom and spinach risotto and Dulse in steamed kale.
Random Food... Shake in some flavour with Mara Seaweed flakes!
"I was sent a lovely trio of Mara seaweed flakes by Real Foods to try out and review. I’ve never experimented with different seaweeds that much before and I was keen to give them a try. They arrived in lovely little packages, with some brief descriptions and ideas. I’ll share with you the recipes I’ve tried them in so far.
I’ll start with the one I found the most versatile, the lovely Kombu. Described as ‘pure umami’, which means the fifth taste sense ( from glutamic acid), it’s often used as a flavour enhancer and can be used instead of salt." Read the blog in full.
