High in protein, minerals and trace elements, Kombu is a brown seaweed that's as healthy as it is tasty. Ours is sourced along the Mendocino line in Northern California, where the arching stems hover above the water's edge at low tide. Raw, wild and sustainably harvested by hand, each blade is trimmed two to three inches above the stipe to ensure continued growth. Then, it's individually hung and sun-dried in a redwood forest to preserve its nutritional value. Use it as a flavorful addition to everything from soup stocks and vegetable dishes to pickles and condiments. Interesting fact: Studies have shown that marine algae like Kombu have been shown to isolate and eliminate heavy metal and radioactive substances from our bodies.
