10 Benefits of Seaweed
Benefit #10: Easy to Grow
Seaweed is filled with flavor and can be easily added to numerous dishes. It is filled with umami, a naturally occurring flavor enhancer that gives kelp its unique taste.
Seaweed, especially when dried, can be eaten with sushi, soups, broths, stews, or rice bowls. In addition, the great thing about seaweed is that it does not require too much attention to be produced. It does not require fertilizer, soil, or sunlight. Currently, Southeast Asia is responsible for 99% of seaweed production, although California is beginning to contribute as well.
