Pacific Harvest Wakame Wild Leaves NZ

This Wild Wakame seaweed is harvested by hand from the pristine waters of New Zealand’s South Island, and air dried to preserve nutrients. Wakame is also known as Undaria and is a popular edible seaweed, commonly added to delicious, hearty miso soups. It has a unique, subtle umami flavour and is silken to touch. If you are vegetarian or vegan, this is one sea vegetable you will grow to love as a source of wonderful flavour and an array of micronutrients, minerals and trace elements most land vegetables would find hard to match! Note: The fine white powder which may be evident on this seaweed frond is glutamine, a naturally occurring amino acid which rises to the surface of a wild harvested seaweed as it dries naturally. This is the source of wonderful umami flavour in wild harvested seaweeds and is not to be confused with mould.
