Ocean's Balance Organic Whole Leaf Kombu – Maine Coast Vegetables for Keto, Paleo, Vegetarian & Vegan Diets – Sweet Seaweed Gluten Free Products (1oz x 3)

I use this product when cooking with beans. I no longer have a gas problem when eating beans!The seaweed smells great; and sometime when I am feeling brave, I may try eating it straight up.I highly recommend this product for people who love beans but not the resulting stomach discomfort.

Old friend came from Maine and I saw a special on PBS about Maine kelp just the day before I ordered this. Excellent source of iodine, which most people need beyond iodized salt they may or may not use. I made Alaskan salmon tonight with some lemon and this kelp sprinkled on it. Really delicious. Will definitely keep reordering, though this nice bag will last a long time. I also sprinkle it into organic tomato juice or V -8 with a little lemon.

Such a great product: the Kombu has a rich, umami taste. I use it in soups and bean dishes to deepen their flavors. So much better than salt! And it makes a fabulous dashi for miso soup: I can really taste the difference with this quality product. I also love that this is from the Gulf of Maine: I trust the water there so much more than in the Pacific. I’ll be buying Ocean’s Balance products from now on!

I bought these to use when cooking beans in the pressure cooker and they are nice pieces but plump up quickly and water and are exactly right they were described to be. Nice packaging and delivery from seller.

The kombu flakes were as hopes. If you’re not familiar with kombu, this variety is on the thicker, tougher side. I purchased them because I was seeking an iodine food supplement. I prefer these flakes cooked in food rather than sprinkled on top because the flakes are still pretty tough. Great added to instapot recipies.

This is a quality product. The flakes are delicious and unlike other brands I’ve ordered, there were no shells or rocks hiding in the bag, just good clean Kombu Flakes. I use them to help my under-active thyroid: the natural iodine in seaweed is exactly what I need. It’s so good in soups and stews and sauces; its natural umami really brings out the flavor of food. And it’s great on top of popcorn. My vegan friends love it too! Will definitely be ordering again!

As an early reviewer, I may receive a small gift card to review honestly. This is an excellent product. Flakes go well in many dishes to add a fresh brined flavor. I also add to rice for same reason. There is another brand I think I prefer but this one is very close in quality and at a better price. I will buy again.

Good taste. Bought for the iodine content. I make a large pot of lentil soup and put the whole bag in it after chopping it up. Whole family loves it.
