"90% of the nutrients are in the root. True culinary experts use 'root kelp'."

Hwanggeumsan Offshore Root Kelp 250g

A nutritional crystallization from the deep sea

It grows in clean, rough offshore waters, resulting in a much thicker and firmer texture.

 We harvest only the 'root' part, where the kelp attaches to rocks and absorbs nutrients,

resulting in overwhelmingly higher mineral and amino acid content than regular thallus.

Concentrated Natural Umami (A treasure trove of Glutamic Acid)

The root section contains the most glutamic acid, an umami component, even among kelp. Using just a small amount yields a clear, rich broth, 

characterized by a clean and slightly sweet aftertaste.

Cost and Time Efficiency

There's no need to use multiple sheets of regular kelp.

A single piece of root kelp is sufficient, making it much more economical,

and it shortens cooking time by creating a deep broth quickly.

Vascular Health and Dietary Fiber Supplementation

'Alginic acid' (the viscous component), particularly abundant in the root, helps excrete waste from the body and manage blood pressure.

If you don't discard it after cooking and shred it, it becomes an excellent healthy dietary fiber.

Tip: Try cooking rice with 'kelp water' soaked in cold water for 30 minutes.

It will become glossy, invigorating rice.
