Hijiki

EverydayDried

Hijiki is a distinctive black sea vegetable traditionally harvested from the rocky coastlines of Japan. This mineral-rich seaweed is typically sold in dried form and must be rehydrated before consumption, expanding significantly during soaking. While valued in Japanese cuisine for its robust marine flavor and impressive calcium content, hijiki should be consumed in moderation and purchased from reputable sources due to potential heavy metal concerns.
