The name of this area is the Sargasso Sea. The Sargasso Sea is ecologically important for the migrations of both the American and European eels, which lay their eggs in the seaweeds. The larvae grow up their before migrating to their respective waters. It is also believed that after hatching, young Loggerhead Sea Turtles use currents to travel to the Sargasso Sea, where they use the seaweeds as cover from predation until they are mature. From a human perspective, the seaweeds also help produce oxygen and help to filter out a small portion of the human pollution in the water.
Wakame is a sea vegetable that has been eaten in Korea for centuries and in what is now Japan for at least ten thousand years. In the 8th century, the oldest existing anthology of Japanese poetry, the Manyoshu, contained references to wakame as a special dish served in sacred services or used as an offering to nobility. Only after the 17th century were ordinary people able to obtain and eat wakame, and cookbooks began including information on preparing wakame dishes. In the past, people ate only wild-harvested wakame, but today, commercially cultivated and harvested wakame is making it increasingly available.
Wakame is thin and stringy, deep green in color, and used in making seaweed salad and miso soup. Wakame can be found either dried or fresh, in a refrigerated, and sealed package. When refrigerated, the wakame is preserved with sea salt and is partially dry so that it's moist to the touch, but not dehydrated and brittle like nori sheets.
What is the difference between sushi and Nori rolls?
Maki sushi or makizushi is rolled into a tube and then cut into circles. This is the most common sushi you see.
Hand roll sushi or temaki is a whole piece of seaweed wrapped around the ingredients in the shape of a cone. These are left as is and are not cut into smaller pieces like the maki sushi it.
Use kitchen shears to cut wakame into desired size, as it can be tough to cut with a knife. Remember, seaweed will expand significantly when rehydrated, so cut into pieces much smaller than the desired finishing size. If your wakame has a thick stem, remove this part, as it's not edible. You can soak fresh wakame for around a half an hour before using, to reduce the saltiness. Browner varieties have a stronger flavor, while the greener varieties are more mild.
Nori is made by shredding edible seaweed and then pressing it into thin sheet. You can find it in Asia food stores.
Do you need to rehydrate nori before using?
No. Nori is perfect when it is dried out. However if you are making rolled sushi or other dishes that are wrapped it isn't a bad idea to lightly brush the interior side of the seaweed with fresh water (cold).
