Seaweeds – healthy, tasty and trendy.

Anybody who has tasted red seaweed wants more! The mild aftertaste of liquorice with a hint of the sea stimulates the taste-buds to call for more. It is delicious as a snack, lightens a thick soup and is a fabulous accompaniment to fish.

Seaweeds are tasty and very useful in all sorts of dishes. The German cook Claudia Seifert has put together an exciting choice of menus – exciting starters, main courses and take-away food, plus tasty desserts, smoothies and energy boosters – all with seaweed as a natural ingredient.

The species of seaweed used in the book are found all over the Northern hemisphere and are also available as dried products. The different species are all illustrated and explained, with short descriptions of how to identify them, where they grow and the other information you need to gather the rich harvest of the sea. A wonderful book which will inspire you to use seaweeds in all types of food – recommended!
