Dried Kombu

Dried Kombu is a shelf-stable sea vegetable used across East Asian cuisines (for example kombu, nori, wakame and miyeok). It is commonly used for stocks, snacks and as a mineral-rich garnish and is known for its savory umami character. In nutrition terms Dried Kombu is a plant-based source of protein and fiber and is particularly notable for its iodine content (3000µg per 100g), along with appreciable iron and vitamin K. This makes it useful for adding micronutrients and umami flavor with relatively little fat. Overall, Dried Kombu is nutrient-dense and offers strong mineral benefits, though because of its very high iodine concentration it should be consumed in moderation by people with thyroid conditions or those advised to limit iodine intake.
