Dulse is a red seaweed that prefers to grow within tidal areas in cool Atlantic Ocean waters and is known for its sweet flavor and mild taste. Our dulse powder is milled from Palmaria palmata which is typically used as a thickening agent in stews and broths. This seaweed powder can even be blended into smoothies to help mask some of the traditional marine flavor.
Dulse is a red seaweed harvested in the cool waters along Atlantic coast of North America and also along the shores of Ireland and Norway. Its fronds grow in tidal areas on rocks, shells, and the larger, longer, brown seaweeds. Dulse can be eaten raw, roasted, fried, dried, or as a thickening agent for soups. Dulse belongs to the Palmariaceae family and is also called dillisk. Dulse is an excellent source of phytochemicals and minerals, and a superior source of iodine.
