Catering ingredients



Seagreens® ingredients for catering range from ready-milled grains of wild Ascophyllum seaweed for use in raw and cooked food or as nutritious vegetable, condiment or flavouring, to a fresh puréed liquid for juices and smoothies!

Fine Granules - visually a powder but actually microfine granules of Seagreens® wild Ascophyllum seaweed which, unlike powders, mix evenly with no dust and do not congeal.

Medium Granules - homogenous 1mm granules of Seagreens® wild Ascophyllum. The consumer version of this product is available in a 200g jar called Seagreens® Culinary Ingredient - a Seagreens® classic.

Pelvetia Pieces - air dried pieces of Seagreens® wild pelvetia up to 10mm which deliver a subtle but highly niutritious taste of the wild.

Liquid Purée - fresh, whole, cold-micronised seaweed in liquid form similar to Heinz tomato ketchup, but olive green!

Research carried out 2007-8 at the UK government sponsored Food Innovation project at Sheffield Hallam University concluded that Seagreens® provides a healthy way to reduce salt (sodium chloride).

It contains all the mineral salts in a natural balance already similar to that in the human body.

Elsewhere, in Japan, research suggests that a significant mix of Seagreens® with salt may counter its negative health effects.

Mixing Seagreens® with other herbs, spices and condiments can produce some sophisticated tastes and interestring uses. In 2008 Waitrose introduced a new member of their Cook’s Ingredient range containing Seagreens® Medium Granules with fennel seeds and other ingredients as a delicious seafood rub!

"Here was this outstanding place (Noma, Copenhagen) doing proper cheffing with ingredients such as seaweed and wild watercress"
