Content: The red algae species used to make Nori are porphyra yezoensis and porphyra tenera. It is gotten from the sea, washed with fresh water and then passed through a shredding machine that reduces it to small pieces. These pieces are mixed with freshwater, passed through square or rectangular frames, drained and then dried on a heated surface. The final results are dried seaweed sheets that are immediately packed and sealed to prevent moisture from getting in. The Nori making process is just like that of paper-making
There are different types of Nori
1. Light green Nori: this type of Nori is loosely woven and almost transparent. It can also be brown in colour. It is a cheap variety that is common because of its affordability. Its use for sushi is however limited because of its low quality.
