Wild-Harvested Kombu Leaf – Umami-Rich Sea Vegetable, Mineral-Dense & Canadian Sourced
Kombu (Laminaria japonica) is a brown seaweed traditionally used in Japanese cuisine for its deep umami flavor and wealth of essential minerals. Our whole kombu leaves are wild-harvested off the clean coastal waters of Canada, offering a sustainable and high-quality alternative to Japanese kombu.
Naturally rich in iodine, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and glutamic acid, kombu enhances savory dishes while supporting digestion and nutrient absorption. It’s perfect for making dashi (broth), flavoring beans, enriching soups and stews, or rehydrating for use in salads.
Flavor Profile:
Mildly salty, subtly sweet, and deeply savory with rich umami depth. Becomes tender when simmered or soaked.
Suggested Use:
-
Simmer to create a mineral-rich broth or dashi base
-
Add to beans during cooking to enhance flavor and improve digestibility
-
Rehydrate and use in seaweed salads or vegetable dishes
-
Cut into strips and simmer in soups or stews for added nutrition
Preparation Tips:
Rinse gently and soak or simmer whole leaves until softened. Remove before serving, or slice and serve rehydrated.
Ingredients:
