One chef describes the aroma of Tosaka Nori, that “It’s like walking into a flower shop”💐
Crisp and springy when rehydrated. The texture transforms into chewy and almost jelly-like form with light heat. And talk about that deep crimson color and those frilled edges. Instantly adds drama to a dish.
We think this is the perfect summer sea vegetable. How would you use it?

✍️Note: Soak in plenty of water for 4 min to rehydrate. It expands to about 5–6 times its original volume.
