Alaria, Whole Plant, Organic

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.

Delicate, mild taste, succulent texture. An excellent subsitute for Japanese Wakame. More dietary fiber (45%), and soluble fiber (16%) than Oat Bran. Good source of Chlorophyll, Enzymes, Beta Carotene and B Vitamins. Certified organic.
