The Japanese refer to this as Nori (as mentioned before).

Nori then began to be used in the United States (in dry form) and could be found in natural and international food stores. It was previously only consumed in a paste-form, but then was dried in sheets due to it’s regular use in sushi dishes. Is Laver nutritious?
