Sea vegetables

Fucus_vesiculosus_Wales

Fresh sea vegetables are some of the healthiest types of food available, rich in vitamins, A1 B1 B2 B6 B12 C E K and iodine while containing (gram for gram) more iron than meat and more calcium than cheese. They are very low in salt and almost completely fat free. Seaweed doesn't have the fishing flavour people assume it will and instead enhances the flavour of the foods it's combined with. They are many varieties and each one has its own unique benefits. Packed with important nutritional elements seaweed is perfect for almost all diets and we supply a fantastic range to suit any pallet.

 

 

Sustainable Harvesting methods


All my seaweed is cut by hand around the Isle of Bute and we supply both fresh and dried forms of seaweed.

They are all easy to prepare and great to eat!

seaweed comes in  5x5 inch bags which contain between 20 - 90 g of seaweed depending on the type and wether its fresh or dryed

some fresh seaweeds will keep for up to 2 weeks (see label on pack)

Dry seaweed will keep for years in a dark dry store.
