About this product

What is kelp powder?

Kelp powder is made from Ascophyllum nodosum, a brown seaweed that grows along the cold, clean coast of Atlantic Canada. It is gathered by hand by trained harvesters, who take it straight to be dried. The powder is 100% seaweed with no additives of any kind.

How it is made

The freshly harvested seaweed is sun-dried, then finish-dried to the right moisture, cleaned and milled into a fine powder. Nothing is added at any stage.

What it tastes like

Savoury and marine, the way dried seaweed is, with a natural saltiness. The colour is an olive green to brown.

How to use kelp powder

Treat it as a seasoning. A pinch in a broth, soup or stew adds depth and a natural salty note; sprinkle it over rice, roast vegetables, popcorn or a salad; or stir a little into a dressing or dip.
