Seaweed can be a great snack especially in a lunchbox for out and about or for school. Nori is high in iodine, vitamin C and protein! We have two different flavours here for you to try, a great snack for mums too!
Please note for proper storage of these you will need to keep a silica gel sachet from your previous seaweed snacks or something similar otherwise the seaweed snacks will need to be eaten soon after baking. There is usually a silica sachet in the nori packet.
If the weather is humid or wet, once the seaweed snacks have cooled they need to be put straight into a sealed container with a silica gel sachet or they will become soft.
For babies under 12 months, you can crush or blitz this seaweed into a sprinkle. Once they are chewing/biting food well, you can then offer as a sheet like this.
