Kombu knotted seaweed - Okui Kaiseido - 10g

The Kombu vinegared tied (Makonbu) is a superior quality craft product by Okui Kaiseido, a renowned Japanese producer. Kombu is a edible algae rich in nutrients. The knotted vinegar process uses rice vinegar and salt to create a unique and tasty taste. The vineyard kombu tied can be added to rice, noodle, soups and vegetable dishes to add a distinctive Umami flavor. The knotting process also adds a crunchy texture pleasant to the Kombu, which makes it a popular filling for sushi dishes. The knot is made by soaking kombu in vinegar water, which is then softened then cut into thin strips, and finally attached in a single knot and dried in the sun.
