Wakame is a type of seaweed that is most popularly served in miso soup in Japan. After being harvested, wakame is sliced into small pieces and dried before being packaged up. After purchasing it, you simply need to soak the wakame in water to reconstitute and it will expand as it absorbs the liquid. Wakame is considered one of the healthiest seaweeds in Japan and is a favourite for people looking to increase the health of their skin and hair. It has also been found that wakame can even help to burn fatty tissue!
• Miso Soup
With tofu cubes and sliced spring onion, wakame is an essential addition to any bowl of authentic miso soup. Simply add a handful of wakame when you are making miso soup to get the authentic taste and the great health benefits.
• Salads
Wakame is also popular in Japan to make salads. As wakame has a slightly sweet flavour to it, it works perfectly with a selection of salads to give an extra taste dimension.
