(More customer reviews)I have been using these recipes for the past few months and I absolutely loves them. I am eating ingredients I never imagined I would.All of the recipes are well though out, balanced, and sensational for the taste buds!

I was vacationing in Vermont earlier this month and visited the author's restaurant in Montpelier, Kismet Cafe.It was the cutest place I have ever dined in and the food was sensational.I think all of their food is organic and locally grown.I have to admit that I ate there more than once and each meal left me full (without being overly stuffed) and held me over until much later in the day. If you are ever in the area, you have to check it out!

Product Description:
Recent trends suggest a wide range of consumer concerns in food choice and consumption. Increasingly, buyers prefer organic and locally produced ingredients; good taste; high nutritional and medicinal value; and low-allergen factors. The humble seaweed, nature's richest source of iodine and loaded with minerals, addresses all these concerns.

In this combination cookbook and food guide, Crystal June Madeira explains the properties of each variety of seaweed-kombu, nori, arame, wakame, and dulse-and provides simple instructions for its preparation in delicious recipes such as Lime Cumin Aioli, Sauteed Wakame and Green Beans, Summer Chicken Soup with Sea Palm, and Baked Figs with Honey Lemon Thyme Sorbet. Seaweed's healing properties in detoxifying the body, alleviating cramps, and lowering blood pressure, have been well documented. That factor, along with the absence of gluten and other allergy triggers, make these recipes ideal for anyone seeking improved health, as well as those who enjoy sea vegetables in Japanese cuisine and want to learn how they can eat them more often. Maderia includes current information on how to purchase local foods, and a directory of seaweed harvesters worldwide.
