Harvested from the bottom of the frigid Icelandic coast, this wild oarweed kelp has a deep umami flavor and oceanic minerality. Use it to give any dish a salty and briny kick. It's for adding depth, savoriness and body to soups, for finishing meat and seafood dishes or as a salt substitute.Â
This kelp is dried and ground from wild Laminaria digitata kelp in a carbon-neutral facility powered by geothermal energy.

Our Wild Icelandic kelp is harvested by boat from the deep, cold water of Iceland’s Westfjords. The harvesting boats drop large, scissor-like devices into the water to cut the tender, flavorful tops off the plants at a carefully calibrated depth that allows the kelp to regrow. The clipped kelp is collected from the ocean in nets and transported back to our partner’s geothermal facility, where it is rinsed, dried and ground. Click here to see where our kelp is harvested!
