INAKA Sushi Nori Gimbap Seaweed is a thin sheet food made from 100% seaweed (Nori). In Korea it is primarily used to make Gimbap — a traditional Korean convenience food in which rice and various fillings are wrapped in a seaweed sheet and rolled into a cylinder. The raw material is the same as Japanese sushi nori, but Gimbap seaweed sheets are generally slightly larger and optimised in thickness and texture for rolling Gimbap firmly. This product contains 50 sheets, providing plenty for multiple uses at home.

Yes. INAKA Sushi Nori Gimbap Seaweed uses 100% seaweed (Nori) as its sole ingredient, making it a fully vegan and vegetarian product. It contains no animal-derived ingredients whatsoever. It is also gluten-free and halal certified, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary requirements.

Seaweed is characterised by a gentle saltiness carrying the flavour of the sea, along with a deep umami. Its profile is similar to dried seafood or certain seaweed snacks found in Europe, so anyone who enjoys seafood should find it approachable. Roasted seaweed has a crisp texture and is delicious eaten on its own as a snack or alongside rice. In Korea it is an everyday ingredient enjoyed by everyone from young children to adults.

Seaweed naturally contains high levels of iodine. For most healthy adults this is not a concern; however, individuals with thyroid conditions or iodine sensitivity are advised to consult a doctor or nutrition specialist before consumption. This is the general precaution recommended for seaweed products in Europe. For healthy adults, one roll of Gimbap (using one seaweed sheet) is perfectly suitable as part of a balanced daily diet.

Seaweed is highly sensitive to moisture. After opening, always store in an airtight container or resealable bag in a cool, dry place. If moisture gets in, the seaweed will become soft and lose its crisp texture. If the sheets do go limp, briefly toasting them in a dry pan or in the oven at a low temperature can restore some of the crispness. As this is a large pack of 50 sheets, it is recommended to portion and reseal quickly after opening.
