Japanese Untoasted Nori 10 sheets Dried Sea Vegetable

Called "Hoshi Nori" in Japanese, these purple looking sheets require brief toasting by unfolding the sheet and holding it over a gas flame or electric burner until it begins to turn green.

They make an ideal snack or wrapping for rice or sushi rolls.

Torn or cut with scissors into thin strips, nori makes a tasty garnish for grain, noodle and vegetable dishes as well as soups and salads.

Nori has been cultivated in Japan for over 300 years.

Nets made of woven rope impregnated with Nori spores are suspended each year between long bamboo poles set deep into the calm, shallow bays.

The height of each net is carefully set so that it remains above the water level during low tide, giving the growing nori maximum sunlight, but below the water level, so the plants receive a regular washing, at high tide.

During the colder months, the delicate Nori plants will grow until they cover the entire net.

In late winter they are harvested and brought ashore, where they are washed, cut, made into thin sheets, and dried.
