Content: This sea vegetable is grown in the waters off Japan, Korea, and China. Nori is common in Japanese cuisine: most notably sushi. If you’ve ever had “maki”, or sushi rolls, you’ve eaten nori: it’s the black, thin sheet that wraps the sushi roll together. Naturally salty with a mild sea-like taste, it has a savory, “umami” flavor. Identification
Nori is black and comes in paper-like sheets. Unlike some kinds of seaweed, it’s smooth and thin in texture, with a mild smell and flavor. Because there are many kinds of seaweed available, check the package to be sure you are buying nori. Note that nori is sometimes called “Laver seaweed”.
