How are we different?

We source our limited-edition, organic wakame seaweed from a completely natural marine area. The algae are cultivated along the Galician coast from the Bay of Biscay to Portuguese waters and are then harvested and sorted by hand – this ensures a high-quality selection. The drying process is gentle at exceptionally low temperatures (maximum 28°C) to preserve the high quality of the naturally grown seaweed. The dried, dark green to brownish wakame seaweed is then crushed into fine flakes.

Our organic wakame seaweed flakes are characterised by their fresh and at the same time mild briny aroma with slightly nutty notes. They are suitable for refining warm dishes, as an addition to smoothies or as a snack. Seaweed is naturally rich in iodine, which may be subject to fluctuations as this is a natural product.

We use an exceptionally high-quality, airtight flavour protection bag with a zipper. The flakes are optimally protected from moisture, oxidation and harmful influences by a 7-fold coating with high barrier security.

Wakame

The wakame algae (Undaria pinnatifida), also known as winged seaweed, is a yellow-brown seaweed that reaches up to 3m in length. It thrives from the intertidal zone to the shallow sublittoral, preferably in sheltered areas on mussel cultures and rocks. Originating in Asia along the cold temperate coasts of the West Pacific, it spread further to New Zealand and Argentina and is now also found in the northeastern Atlantic as well as the Mediterranean.

Wakame has been highly prized in the culinary world for generations. Whether raw, boiled or fried, the full-bodied seaweed with its particularly mild and slightly nutty flavour and nutritional quality can add a special touch to a wide variety of dishes.

Cultivation & Processing

Our high-quality wakame seaweed (Undaria pinnatifida) is naturally cultivated with wild-growing seaweed populations along the Galician coast, from the Bay of Biscay to Portuguese waters. The Galician coast is located at the northwestern tip of Spain and borders both the Atlantic Ocean and the Cantabrian Sea. The prevailing rough marine climate there allows the seaweed to thrive.

The growth period of wakame seaweed begins in March; the adult seaweed is then available for 4–5 months, particularly in the late summer.

The seaweed is carefully harvested and sorted by hand, then gently dried in drying rooms at temperatures up to 28°C. The careful harvesting and drying preserve the unique flavour and premium raw quality.
