Description:
Whole, Organic, Raw, Maine Coast
Alaria (Wakame) (Net wt. 2 oz.):
Our Alaria (Alaria esculenta) is biologically and nutritionally so similar to Japanese wakame (Undaria pinatifida) that we refer to it as "Wild Atlantic Wakame." Alaria provides a more wild, yet delicate taste and needs a longer cooking time than wakame. It is our preferred sea vegetable for miso soup. Its mild flavor profile allows it to blend in with many other ingredients without overwhelming them.

Alaria is a good dietary source of Vitamin A  [beta carotene], iron, potassium, magnesium, chlorophyll, enzymes, trace elements, Vitamin B's and dietary fiber.

Suggested Uses:
For rawfood meals: Try Alaria in soups, salads or simply as a snack! Alaria has a delicate, mild taste, and succulent texture.

Whole Leaf Alaria can be marinated, blanched or steamed for use in salads, or quick roasted and enjoyed as "chips."
This sea vegetable is wonderful in stirfries, grains, and salads!

Powdered Alaria is a great addition to green drinks (try mixing it with kelp and dulse powder) or any energy drink that needs mineral fortification (particularly calcium). It is also delicious added to your favorite soup recipe or simply add it to a cup of hot water for a mineral-rich broth.

Note:
Our Whole Leaf Alaria comes directly to you without processing or washing out any of its richness. Please check for occasional tiny hidden pebbles or shells in the fronds. Some plants may be partially covered with a white powder of natural salts and sugars that precipitate from their cells during storage. To minimize, seal unused Alaria in its ziplock bag out of sunlight, heat or moisture.
