Episode 44: Seaweed
Sure, nori and kombu are loaded with nutrients and umami, but are they funny? We can try. While splashing around in the ocean of seaweed humor, we learn how to shop for savory seaweed products, including tsukudani, Korean salted laver, and furikake. That’s a funny word, right? www.spilledmilkpodcast.com
Seaweed for sale (notes on Episode 44)
Here are the seaweed products we tried during Episode 44. Check your local Asian grocery or natural foods store before buying online, because shipping is expensive and you should support your local hippies.
Japanese nori: Yamamotoyama Roasted Seaweed for Sushi
Korean salted laver: Sea’s Gift Korean Seaweed Snack
Nori tsukudani: JFC Ajishima
Kombu: Eden Kombu
Kombu tsukudani: Simanoca Genki Goma Tsukudani (the commercial product is tasty but loaded with weird ingredients; consider making your own)
