What Mara fans say about Shony
“Inexplicably delicious.”
Paul Hollywood, celebrity chef
“First time ever I've not wanted salt on my chips.”
Bob, aged 48
How do I enjoy Shony seaweed?
Our customers love to liberally shake Shony on their eggs at breakfast.
Try Shony as a seasoning. Sprinkle it generously on salads to bring out lighter flavours; use it like dried herbs to make a rub for chicken or pork; or stir Shony through soft butter or oil, coat fish and bake.
Shony also works in baking and desserts, such as this crumble recipe from Paul Hollywood.
