Review: The Emerald Cove Pacific Kombu Dried Seaweed has been a delightful and versatile addition to my pantry. This 1.76-ounce bag of silver-grade kombu offers high-quality dried seaweed that is perfect for a variety of culinary uses, especially in traditional Japanese cuisine. One of the standout features of this product is the quality of the kombu. The silver grade indicates a high-quality product, and it certainly lives up to that expectation. The kombu is thick, with a rich, deep green color, and a naturally briny aroma. It’s clear that the seaweed is carefully harvested and dried, maintaining its integrity and flavor. The taste of Emerald Cove Pacific Kombu is excellent. It has a subtle, umami-rich flavor that enhances the dishes it’s used in. I've primarily used it to make dashi, a fundamental Japanese soup stock, and it adds a wonderfully rich, savory depth to the broth. The kombu imparts a slightly sweet, briny taste that complements other ingredients without overpowering them. It’s also great for adding umami to soups, stews, and even when cooking grains like rice. Another aspect I appreciate is the ease of use. The kombu comes in large sheets that are easy to cut or break into smaller pieces as needed. The instructions on the bag are straightforward, making it easy to prepare even if you're not familiar with using dried seaweed. Soaking the kombu for a few minutes before use softens it, making it easier to work with and enhancing its flavor. It rehydrates well, maintaining a good texture without becoming too slimy or overly soft. The packaging is simple and effective. The 1.76-ounce bag is resealable, which helps keep the kombu fresh and dry after opening. The size is perfect for home use, providing enough kombu for multiple recipes without taking up too much space in the pantry. The clear instructions on the package also provide helpful tips for using and storing the seaweed. Emerald Cove Pacific Kombu is also a nutritious addition to meals. It’s rich in minerals, including iodine, which is essential for thyroid health. The natural vitamins and minerals in kombu make it a healthy ingredient that not only enhances flavor but also contributes to a balanced diet. Overall, the Emerald Cove Pacific Kombu Dried Seaweed has exceeded my expectations. Its combination of high quality, excellent flavor, ease of use, and nutritional benefits makes it an essential ingredient for anyone interested in exploring Japanese cuisine or adding more umami to their dishes. Whether you're making traditional dashi, experimenting with new recipes, or simply looking to boost the flavor of your meals, this kombu is a fantastic choice. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic and high-quality dried seaweed.
Review: This kombu is very good. It’s nice and fresh - still a bit pliable and both smells and tastes great. Well, it’s dried seaweed, so it smells and tastes great for dried seaweed. The pieces are good sized and mostly from the thick part of the leaves, with a lovely chewy texture when cooked. Aside from dashi, I mostly use it for cooking beans. It gives an amazing meatless umami boost to a pot and gives the bean broth a consistency similar to what you would get from using something with a high gelatin content, like a ham shank. Makes a nice addition to a pot of rice or ramen too. Probably best to avoid using iodized salt alongside the kombu, though, unless you really need an iodine boost. When the pot’s done, rinse the kombu and cut it into strips, sauté it with soy sauce and mirin, then chill it down. Makes a really nice tasty cook’s treat as an accompaniment to steamed rice.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the white powder on my kombu?**
A: The white powder found on kombu strips is naturally occurring glutamic acid, the source of umami flavor.

**Q: What are common uses for kombu?**
A: Kombu is traditionally used in dashi stock which is the base for miso soup. Add a strip to dried beans while they are cooking to aid in tenderizing the beans and add flavor. You can also pulverize dried kombu into a powder for an umami seasoning.

A: We've been a trusted name in sea vegetables for more than 30 years! In addition to kombu, we carry wakame and arame as well as toasted and untoasted sushi nori.
