[Gijang Mulsan] Organic Cut Korean Seaweed (50g)
Introducing Gijang Muslin's Organic Cut Seaweed, harvested from the pristine waters off Gogeum Island, South Korea.
This seaweed arrives conveniently pre-cut, making it very easy to use.
Just grab a small handful, give it a quick soak in cold water for 10 minutes, and witness its transformation into a delectable natural form. The difference in texture, taste, and quality compared to regular seaweed is immediately noticeable.
Gijang Muslin seaweed is grown in nutrient-rich waters abundant with micro-plankton, resulting in a robust umami flavor and delightfully chewy texture.
What's more, it's certified organic.
This seaweed is cultivated without synthetic additives, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), antibiotics, or any other chemicals.
This commitment to purity means you can use it worry-free!
Koreans love seaweed for its high fiber content, aiding digestion and imparting a feeling of fullness.
Additionally, it's packed with antioxidants to protect cells from free radicals as well as essentials nutrients like vitamins A, C, and K, calcium, iodine, and iron.
We find ourselves reaching for this particular seaweed product all the time - as we don’t have to cut the seaweed. Simply soak the curls and get your pot of miyeok-guk started right away.
Keep in mind, these small dried curls expand significantly when soaked, so start with a modest amount and adjust according to your recipe.
Easy, healthy and delicious.
One pack contains 50g (~20 servings).

We offer 3 types of seaweed
Traditional seaweed
Raw seaweed strands are cut and dried without any salting process. Each strand is carefully spread out by hand to soak in the sunshine and ocean air. This type of seaweed is the most commonly sold in Korea. We store our seaweed under the following conditions: humidity maintained at 60-70% and temperature kept between 15-20°C.
Fermented Seaweed
We blanch strands of raw seaweed at 95°C for 30-60 seconds. Afterward, we rapidly cool it down using a pump with cold ocean water.
After drip-drying, the seaweed is soaked in brined water (with a salt-to-water ratio of 3:1, achieving a salinity of 22-25% with sea salt) for one day.
Cut / Silmi Seaweed
The central stalk of the seaweed is removed. Next, all the salt is thoroughly washed off, and the seaweed is cut into bite-sized pieces before being fully dried.
