Our premium Japanese Arame is a beautiful wavy seaweed that has two slick, oval fronds. When dried and cooked, Arame resembles hijiki in appearance and color. We select Arame's most tender fronds from the hand-harvested summer produce. The tender and delicate fronds of Arame are washed, sun-dried, steamed, shredded, and air-dried before packaging. This natural seaweed could be a delicious addition to your vegetable dishes, salads, stuffing, and more. To prepare for use, give the Arame a quick rinse, soak for 5 minutes and add it to your recipe as desired.
