Abstract

Provides a recipe for a jar of seaweed jam and discusses the challenges of cooking with seaweed due to the necessity of breaking down its very tough components in order to release the range of bioactive agents that seaweed contains. Turning seaweed into jam accomplishes this transformation. Provides international examples of seaweed foods that incorporate these principles.
