Shima Aosa (Sea Lettuce)
Just adding a pinch to your miso soup brings the sea of Ise-Shima to your dining table. This is Shima's Aosa. In fact, the seaweed from Mie Prefecture is the top producer in Japan, accounting for approximately 70% of the national production. It grows in rocky areas where the pure waters of the Pacific Ocean mix with the nutrient-rich waters of Ise Bay, nurtured by the waves from the open sea. When you pour dashi over dried aosa in a bowl, the briny aroma rises instantly as the seaweed expands into a vibrant green. Its smooth texture and the burst of oceanic flavor when bitten pair exceptionally well, especially with red miso. It is wonderful not only in miso soup but also in tempura and rolled omelets (tamagoyaki). To fully enjoy its aroma, please enjoy it while freshly prepared and hot.
