CONT

"Maine Coast Sea Vegetables" was born in 1971 over a pot of miso soup. In it were some alaria fronds just plucked from the sea ... We now offer four varieties : alaria, dulse, kelp, and nori. They are hand harvested directly from their beds at low tides, dried in the sun or in a wood heated shed, and packed without further processing into bulk boxes for bags.

La plupart des utilisations sont destinées à la production d'agents épaississants ou gélifiants utilisés par les IAA [...] tout en constatant l'intérêt apparu depuis quelques années pour la consommation humaine d'algues en tant que «légume de mer».

OBS

[Algues employées dans l'alimentation humaine.] Ces végétaux renferment [...] de nombreux éléments nutritifs (protéines, hydrates de carbone, vitamines, oligo-éléments). Ils sont aussi utilisés par les industries agro-alimentaires.
