A light-textured kombu seaweed made by an artisan in the city of Tsuruga, in Fukui Prefecture. The kombu seaweed is grated by hand and then marinated in vinegar, creating a cloud-like texture that preserves all the kombu seaweed's umami.
Oboro kombu is a highly versatile ingredient that can be used in a wide variety of dishes: whether in miso soup to add texture and intensify its flavor, or onigiri instead of a sheet of nori seaweed. Its strands can also be added to udon or cold soba.
Once chopped or reduced to powder, this partially water-soluble seaweed acts as a natural thickener thanks to the alginate it contains and its high fiber content. This characteristic makes it a very useful ingredient for thickening sauces or preparing condiments made with vegetable purée or miso paste. You can also mix it with mayonnaise to serve with fish, or incorporate it into meatballs.

Based in Tsuruga, Fukui Prefecture, Okui Kaiseido has specialized in exceptional kombu since 1871. Founded in a former key trading port for the kombu trade between Hokkaidō and Kansai, the company has cultivated expertise passed down through four generations. It selects the finest seaweed from the coasts of Rishiri and Rebun, then slowly matures it in its own warehouses to reveal its full depth, creating its signature product: “kuragakoi kombu,” aged kombu. A supplier to Zen temples such as Eiheiji and to renowned Japanese and international restaurants, Okui Kaiseido upholds a demanding artisanal tradition while conveying a powerful message: nourishing body and spirit through food rooted in Japanese culture.
Oboro kombu is partially soluble in water. Whether in strands, chopped, or ground into powder, it acts as a natural binder, thickening your preparations while adding flavor.
