Dried curly wakame seaweed, special salad and dish format, 500g bag
(Undaria pinnatifida)
In partnership with BRETALG, this wakame is hand-picked and then dried. We offer you a brand-new format: large "curly" pieces that triple in volume when you rehydrate them. This lets you use wakame as a base for your salads, dishes and side dishes, just like fresh wakame. But also to eat it as it is, to replace crisps at your aperitifs!
Its taste is fairly mild, with a slightly smoky flavour and its texture, once rehydrated, is firm and pleasant.
🌿 Recipe idea for spring/summer:
- 25 g wakame
- 50 g parsley
- 1 handful of sprouted mustard or clover seeds
- 3 tomatoes
- 1/2 cucumber
- 1/2 pepper
- 1 lemon
- Flaxseed oil or sesame oil
- 1/2 glass of sea water
- 1 clove of garlic
- Pepper
- Paprika
Chop the vegetables and the garlic, taking care to keep their juices. Mix all the ingredients. Let the salad swell for at least 2 hours so that the wakame rehydrates and gains volume.
Enjoy!

🌿 Composition of dried wakame
Average values per 100 g of dried seaweed (data sheet from the Centre d'Étude et de Valorisation des Algues below): energy value 184 kcal, protein 14 g, fat 2.5 g, carbohydrate 5.7 g, fibre 41 g, calcium 1 002 mg (or 125% of the nutrient reference values).
With 41 g of fibre per 100 g, dried wakame is high in fibre; its protein accounts for around 30% of its energy content (source of protein). Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones.
Wakame naturally contains fucoxanthin, a carotenoid pigment that gives it its brownish colour, as well as iodine: if you are being treated for a thyroid condition, pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor for advice.

🌿 BRETALG has selected a supplier in Asia capable of delivering the same quality as what they produce themselves in Brittany. Same type of harvest, same analyses, same mindset around seaweed and food.
However, BRETALG does not have the equipment needed to make these curly wakame in large pieces as we wanted; in fact no one in Europe has this know-how. The seaweed comes from the country that has been growing, valuing and cooking with it for the longest: China. They have the ancestral know-how, carry out very rigorous checks and have the cutting-edge techniques to treat seaweed with the gentleness it needs.
