Nutritional Tips

Aonori seaweed powder gives a nice flavour to the dish. You can eat it without adding any salt. Lemon is nice to add some freshness.

There are different kinds of edible seaweeds both dried and wet. Seaweeds are generally high in fibre and low in calories.

They are widely consumed in Japan, Korea and China. People have been consuming them as a part of their diet for a long time. Seaweed may contain high levels of iodine compared to other foods and some may even contain vitamin B12. However, these vitamin B12 are biologically inactive in human bodies, therefore, people who are following vegan/vegetarian diets need to consume some breakfast cereals, soya drinks or yeast extract (such as Marmite) that are fortified to have sufficient intake through these or by taking supplements.
