First-harvest nori seaweed with organic olive oil from Sicily and natural sea salt from Guérande.
These nori crisps can be eaten wrapped around rice or salad, or simply as a snack. They also go very well with beer and white wine.
Good to know: first-crop nori, known as ‘hatsuzumi’ or ‘ichibanzumi’, is a young seaweed characterised by its softness and melt-in-the-mouth texture.
These crisps derive from a habit of nori fishermen in the Ariake Sea in Saga, who used to eat the imperfect nori that could not be marketed by cooking it with oil and salt on the beach.
