Price:$ 8.75

SKU No.: 203006

It is one of the sweeter tasting sea vegetables and requires little preparation.
It is highly recommended in the Macrobiotic diet because of its highly alkaline qualities. In Japanese folk medicine wakame is known as a cleanser and a strengthener of the blood.
Excellent source of minerals good source of vegetarian protein dietary fibre calcium & iron essential amino acids and Vitamins A B1 B2 B12 & C it is often given to people recovering from disease or women who have just given birth.
Wakame is well known because it is used in Japanese Miso soup. Wakame is part of the Undaria family. The black colour of the dried wakame will turn green when re-hydrating.

Wakame is abondant in New Zealand but to this day harvest has not been allowed as it is not native and is invasive. Currently our wakame is imported from Japan. It has been blanched and freeze-dried. It can be easily re-hydrated back to its original state and beautiful green color by placing the dried fronds in warm water for 3 minutes. It will expand to about 5 times its dried size.

It has a silky visually appealing texture and its delicate taste makes it easy to include in a variety of dishes. It is very similar to spinach in the way it can be used.
