Eden Foods Kombu - Sea Vegetable - Wild Hand Harvested - 2.1 Oz - Case Of 6

Good product.

This is a very nice quality of Kombu, the pieces are long and evenly sized. I hold them under cold water to unroll each piece to its full size, about 1.5" X 6" per piece. I use this while making rice for sushi, add a few pieces of chopped Kombu and a few tablespoons of Sake to your rice and water (Make sure to use less water to make-up for the addition of the Sake.), then proceed to cook the rice as you normally would. The Kombu and Sake give the rice a very nice taste. When the rice is cooked, I add a mixture of pure rice wine vinegar, salt, and a bit of sugar and toss lightly. This is ideal for Sushi, or just generally a great tasting rice. I use brown Japanese short grain rice, this is a delicious, as well as healthy recipe for rice.***I was concerned about possible radiation issues with any product coming from Japanese waters. I called the Eden company and spoke with Customer Service. They informed me that they do extensive radiation testing while the product is still in Japan, refusing anything testing positive for radiation. The representative further informed me that they have a Geiger counter at their American facility, which they use on Japanese products, and that they additionally send samples to outside labs. for testing. The company informed me that anything with traces of radiation would be refused and returned to Japan. This company has a very good history of selling high-quality ingredients, and I feel confident using Eden Kombu.

Very good, makes good dashi. Has recipes on the back.

This sea weed is of high quality and added important flavor to the marinade and dashi that we prepared. I will buy it again.

Wonderful for miso soup (dashi)
