Ingredient: Kelp (Laminaria digitata)
Allergens: May contain traces of shellfish and crustaceans
Instructions:
Kelp (Laminaria Digitata) or sometimes referred to as ‘Irish Kombu’, is a versatile seaweed and is a wonderful flavour enhancer for soups and stocks. It is most commonly used to make dashi broth as well as being added to beans when cooking. While its texture is a bit tough in dried form, it softens up in and adds great flavour to braises and stews.
Mungo has developed a range of simple dried seaweeds for those who want to incorporate seaweeds in their diet but don't have access to clean sources of fresh seaweeds themselves.
Mungo invites you to get creative when cooking with seaweeds. Don't just think of them as an accompaniment to fish dishes because it comes out of the sea (although they do pair well together). Trust Mungo when he says:
"Seaweed goes with everything!"
Mungo is concerned about plastic pollution in the global environment, and as a producer, he is especially concerned about the increasing amount of micro-plastics found in Oceans around the world- a significant amount of which is attributable to plastic product packaging; so, to do his bit for the environment, this bag is made out of recycled wood pulp and is 100% compostable.
