In Itoshima, Fukuoka, Kyushu, fishermen dive into the sea and carefully hand-pick natural Aka-moku, which is then boiled and dried. Soak it in water for about 10 minutes to rehydrate it, and then you can put it on rice or in miso soup and enjoy it.
Akamoku (brown seaweed) has a strong stickiness and a fragrant aroma, so it is recommended to chop it finely and eat it as is, put it in miso soup, or pour it over udon noodles. By adding Akamoku (brown seaweed), the minerals calcium and iron increase by about 20-30%. Also, dietary fiber increases by about 5% when Akamoku (brown seaweed) is added, so it is desirable to add Akamoku (brown seaweed) to meals.Reference site: Food Analysis Development Center.
* Japanese natural Akamoku seaweed, Gibasa, from Genkai-nada, Itoshima, Kyushu. Hand-picked seaweed, rich in fucoidan.* Rehydrate with water and enjoy on rice, in miso soup, udon noodles, omelets, or mixed with natto or yamaimo.* Akamoku seaweed is a brown seaweed. In its raw state, it is brown, but when boiled, it turns a vivid green. This dried Akamoku seaweed has been boiled, so you can use it as is by rehydrating it with water.* Among seaweeds, Akamoku seaweed contains particularly high amounts of fucoidan. Fucoidan is a water-soluble dietary fiber, so when it enters the intestine, it dissolves and produces a sticky texture, promoting bowel movements.* In addition to fucoidan, Akamoku seaweed also contains fucoxanthin. Fucoxanthin has the effect of increasing the number of cells that burn fat, and the amount of fucoxanthin in Akamoku seaweed is twice that of wakame. It is recommended to eat 10g of Akamoku seaweed per day.* It is recommended to eat Akamoku seaweed every day because its ingredients disappear after a day.* Akamoku seaweed is rich in minerals, polyphenols, and dietary fiber.* To prepare dried Akamoku seaweed, soak it in water for about 10 minutes and then be ready to eat.* This Akamoku seaweed is hand-picked by local fishermen from natural Akamoku seaweed grown in the waters near Itoshima, Fukuoka, Kyushu. It contains no additives.* It has been boiled and dried, so it will last for a while, but please avoid high temperatures and humidity and use it as soon as possible.
