Nori is a purple-red seaweed belonging to the red algae group. Nori is rich in protein, packed with vitamins and minerals such as iodine and calcium. Nori contains almost 10 times more potassium than a banana and nearly five times more vitamin C than oranges. Nori is also rich in vitamin A and many important trace elements.
Usage: Nori is best known for its use in sushi, but it can also be used to make a nutritious wrap with your favorite ingredients or shredded into salads and soups. You can fill your wrap with, for example, grated vegetables, lettuce, cucumber, avocado, raw rice, quinoa, millet, buckwheat, dried berries, seeds, tofu, goat cheese, feta cheese: yes - whatever you like! Then you can sprinkle any dressing over it (tamari and ginger is always delicious), roll it up and yum;
a perfect lunch, as a snack for outings or as a between-meal snack.

Clearspring's Nori is cultivated and produced using traditional methods in Kyushu, Japan. Some varieties of seaweed such as hijiki, arame and dulse are wild-harvested using sustainable methods, while others, like nori are cultivated in Japan and other East Asian countries. Although originally gathered from the wild, nori has been cultivated in Japan for over 300 years. Nets made of woven ropes impregnated with nori spores are hung up each year between long bamboo poles deep in calm,
shallow bays. The height of each net is designed so that the seaweed remains above water level during low tide, providing the growing nori with maximum sunlight, while being washed by water during high tide. In early spring, they are harvested and brought ashore, where they are washed, cut, and dried.
