Arame, Wild

Eden Arame is a sweet and mild sea vegetable. It grows wildly in the Sea of Japan where tender fronds are harvested each spring. Eden Arame is carefully selected, cooked for seven hours to tenderize it and sun dried. The leaf is then thinly sliced for quick preparation, ease-of-use and versatility. Eden Arame is an excellent choice for introducing friends to sea vegetables - it is easy to prepare and offers pleasing texture and a mild taste. Serve as a side dish flavored with brown rice vinegar and shoyu, mix with other vegetables, or use marinated for salads.
