expert comment…

Thick dark strips of the mineral-rich sea vegetable kombu are a valuable cooking ingredient. They can be used as a flavour enhancer and when cooked with beans help soften and improve their digestibility. A strip of kombu cooked in water for a few minutes will make a tasty and nutritious stock for soups and stews. This ‘dashi’ forms the vegetarian base of many Japanese dishes. Kombu is the Japanese name for the sea plant commonly called kelp in the west. Kelp though, usually has a stronger flavour of the sea than delicate tasting Japanese kombu.
