OK, I'll grant that accompanying shells wouldn't quite be to my taste, er, crunch. Too much animal for me. The seaweed, though, unless dulce or dulze is very different to other kinds that I have eaten, is delicious. And, if you care about such things, nutritious. And pretty too :=) But if there's a food one hates, I figure try it, try it again, and then just leave the stuff alone. As you say, there are lots of vegetarian foods out there to enjoy LOL For myself, I'm glad I learned to enjoy seaweed - so many cultures do, including my own :=) Recipes for seaweed / sea vegetables, anyone????? I put it in some salads, add it to some bean dishes, and throw it in some soups. Best love, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 Ok, Pat, dumb question. Seaweed comes sans shells, too? Where do you get it, and what kinds do you like? I'd really love to try that not tuna tuna recipe. Anyone else have seaweed info for me? I don't know much about it (obviously) other than it's pretty when I'm diving down south!

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 > Ok, Pat, dumb question. Seaweed comes sans shells, too? Good thing too, eh? LOL > Where do you > get it, and what kinds do you like? At your health food store maybe? Some have it. Otherwise, your asian store should have a variety of kinds. I'm still a newbie really at seaweed - I've eaten different kinds but have only bought a couple of kinds, and I'm hopless at remembering the names of the ones I had in the past. The one I'm enjoying now is wakame, but I enjoy nori (aka laver) and I've had kombu but can't quite remember . . . Oh dear - nothing for it but a trip down to my favourite little seaweed pusher! I don't know of any spicy seaweed recipes, but I never let that stop me - I add a pinch or two of crushed red chillies to most things, including seaweed! But as I say, if you don't like it you don't like it - why fash yourself? ;=) Best love, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do people eat that stuff? I've often brought back dulse (dulze, dulce) from Atlantic Canada and the only time it ever had grit in it was when I bought it in bulk from a small road side stand! It's usually been pre-packaged, cleaned and dried... delicious with beer instead of salted peanuts!

I am from Taiwan, and i want to share something about seaweed. Since Taiwan is an island, there is many many seaweed. In fact, I eat seaweed very often, because I live by the sea. And I think seaweed is very yummy and nutiritional. My mother and I sometimes go to the reef coast and pluck some seaweed. I think that you may not like seaweed on account of its fishlike smell. But people in Taiwan or Japan are guite get used to it. Hance, my suggestion is that you can use seaweed to make soup. If you know what is " MISO " (a kind of Japanese seasoning made from soybean), you can add some into your soup. It will taste good. Or you can fire seaweed with hot pepper. Next time you can try it.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Hi Mular :=) Good to have you with us! And thanks for this tip about seaweed. Frankly I don't think it smells of fish - I think fish smell of seaweed LOL and both of the sea. It's great in miso soup - that's one of the ways I use it now (only recently 'discovered' seaweed) - and yes miso is absolutely great for a bunch of other things too. Sooooo tasty! Back to the seaweed, I like adding it to various bean recipes too - with crushed dried chillies or finely chopped green or red thai chillies and a little soysauce - or other spices, depending on the dish. Great stuff in salads too. I can't believe I lived so long without it! Thanks for writing in about it! (Btw, I'm Pat, list owner and general dogsbody. I live in Canada.)

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Dear Pat: NICE to meet you!! I am very happy I can join this group since here are a lot of uesful information about how to make good dishes. As for seaweed, I think the way you cook seaweed is more like " Chinese style " or " Thai style. " And you like spicy food very much, don't you? In my country, we ususally fried seaweed with fresh kidney beans and add some red chillies. Or we make seaweed as salad, but no mayonnaise. We use black vinegar as the sauce. This dish is very good for people who are on diet, and it is very popular in my country.^^ , " Pat " <veggiehound> wrote: > > > Hi Mular :=) Good to have you with us!

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Hi Chanda, It was a cold salad, much like goma ae, only made with wakame and seasoned with chillies.
