Nori Tsukudani is a traditional Japanese seaweed condiment made with 38.6% nori seaweed, slowly simmered in soy sauce and seasonings to create a rich, savoury paste with a naturally sweet and umami flavour. Originating from Shodoshima, Kagawa, Japan, this ready-to-use delicacy has a glossy, soft texture that makes it an ideal accompaniment to both traditional Japanese cuisine and contemporary dishes. Its deep umami profile offers authentic Japanese flavour with every spoonful.
Use
Ready to use, Nori Tsukudani is perfect as a topping for steamed rice, sushi, onigiri and rice bowls. It can also be served with grilled fish, tofu, eggs, noodles and vegetables, or used as a flavourful ingredient in sandwiches, canapés and savoury appetisers. Its concentrated umami taste also makes it an excellent addition to sauces, marinades and dressings.
