SEA VEGETABLE RECIPES.
Many people are unfamiliar with sea vegetables (also known as seaweed). People all over the world have been eating sea vegetables for thousands of years. Four varieties of sea vegetables have been found preserved in j.a.panese burial grounds that were 10,000 years old. The Australian Aborigines use three different types of sea vegetables. The Native American Indians include alaria (wakame-like), nori (laver), and kelp in their traditional diets. The Atlantic coastal people of Scandinavia, France, and the British Isles also have been eating sea vegetables for centuries.
The vegetarian movement in North America, particularly macrobiotics, has brought attention to the tremendous health benefits of sea vegetables. Gram for gram, they are higher in minerals and vitamins than any other cla.s.s of food. They are rich in A, B, C, E, and human-active vitamin B12. One-half ounce of alaria contains 2.15 g of human-active B12, which is 10 times more B12 than the daily minimum requirement. Dulse has the least amount of human-active B12, but the amount in one-half ounce of dulse is .29 g, which is still a little more than the minimum daily need. One-half ounce of kelp has .48 g, approximately 1-2 times the daily minimum, and laver (nori) has .74 g, or 2-3 times the daily minimum.
The minerals in sea vegetables are found in similar ratios to those in the blood. Sea vegetables produce substantial amounts of proteins, complex carbohydrates, carotenes, and chlorophyll. For example, dulse and nori have 21.5 and 28.4 grams of protein respectively per hundred grams of sea vegetable. They have approximately 2-4.5% fat, and 40 to 45 grams of carbohydrate per hundred grams of sea vegetable. Alaria (essentially identical to the j.a.panese wakame) and kelp are extremely high in calcium. All of the sea vegetables seem to be high in pota.s.sium, with kelp being the highest, followed by dulse and alaria. Alaria and kelp are high in magnesium, each having three times the RDA per 100 grams. Kelp and alaria have very high amounts of iodine. One hundred grams of kelp has approximately ten times the estimated RDA. One hundred grams of alaria and nori have approximately 8487 and 4266 iu of vitamin A per hundred grams. One hundred grams of most of the sea vegetables has about one-third the RDA of the B vitamins, one-tenth the RDA of vitamin C, and about one-third the RDA of vitamin E. As pointed out earlier, these sea vegetables also contain chelating agents that are effective for protection against the absorption of radioactive particles.
Some people must acquire a taste for sea vegetables. I find that they taste excellent in their dried raw-leaf form. Although I have never enjoyed raw granular kelp or kelp in tablet form, eating the actual kelp frond, dried or fresh, is a tasty addition to salads and soups. It is best to eat the sea vegetables in their raw form after the sea salt and occasional seash.e.l.ls and animals have been rinsed off. This takes about ten minutes of soaking and rinsing. After the raw sea vegetables are soaked, one can eat them right away or marinate them in vinegar or lemon juice. I enjoy adding a variety of masalas to the marinade.
Soaked sea vegetables balance V, are neutral to P, and neutral to slightly unbalancing to K.
