Kombu (Kelp) Broth

Kombu (Kelp) Broth is a clear, umami-rich broth made by steeping dried kombu (kelp) — a staple in Japanese and other East Asian cuisines used as a base for soups, stews and sauces. It’s prized for its savory taste and ability to add depth to vegetarian and vegan dishes. Nutritionally, Kombu (Kelp) Broth is extremely low in calories and macronutrients while packing minerals and flavor; it provides 150ug of iodine per 100g, making it a convenient way to boost iodine intake without adding fat or many calories. Because it adds strong flavor with very few calories, Kombu (Kelp) Broth is useful for making dishes more satisfying; however, people with thyroid sensitivity or who must limit iodine should use it sparingly or choose low-iodine alternatives.
