Ocean's Balance Organic Dulse Seaweed - Whole Leaf

Ocean's Balance Organic Dulse Seaweed - Whole Leaf is a sustainably grown and harvested macroalgae (marine plant) that is dehydrated and ground. It provides natural sources of broad-spectrum trace minerals in naturally chelated form and other phytochemicals and micronutrients increasingly unavailable in conventional food ingredients. It is a rich, meaty-flavored seaweed beloved in New England, Atlantic Canada, Iceland, and Northern Europe. Fondly known as "the bacon of the sea," it can be enjoyed as the umami of whole-leaf dulse, a sustainably harvested superfood, as an ingredient in soups, rich stews, or roasted vegetables. It can even be enjoyed as an organic dulse leaf right out of the bag as a delicious, chewy treat.
