EverydayDried

Wakame is a nutrient-dried seaweed widely used in Japanese cuisine, most notably as the tender green component in miso soup and seaweed salads. When rehydrated, it expands significantly and develops a silky texture with a subtly sweet, oceanic flavor. This marine vegetable is exceptionally rich in iodine for thyroid support and provides calcium and magnesium, while remaining low in calories and naturally gluten-free. Its dried form offers extended shelf life and quick preparation versatility.
