With its robust, salty taste, it’s no wonder Dulse seaweed makes a great seasoning!

Eating dulse is an ancient tradition in Scots and Irish culture. It adds a wonderful depth of flavour to your dishes and is mineral and protein rich. Sometimes dubbed 'vegetarian bacon' it has a wonderful flavour that pairs well with seafood and leafy greens, tomatoes. Delicious as a seasoning for salmon or lamb.

What Mara fans say about Dulse

“Dulse is great on roasted veg.”

Rachel


“A very rich, salty taste of the sea. But not the saltiness you associate with crisps, something deeper. I enjoyed it and it definitely added to the rich kale.” 

Lynsey

"I found Dulse worked really well with spicy lamb casseroles, linguine, chilli, garlic and shellfish."

Susan

How do I enjoy Dulse Seaweed?

Poached salmon with Dulse seaweed flakes

Dulse has a natural, lingering smoky taste. It's delicious when generously shaken on dark green vegetables and rich, powerful meats.

For an extra savoury hit without the salt, use Dulse flakes to season steak or lamb chops before cooking, or stir into family favourites like spaghetti bolognaise and chilli before serving. Dulse is also perfect scattered on top of fish or mixed through crispy kale.

For an unusual salted caramel-style twist, try pairing Dulse with dark chocolate. Just combine a pinch of Dulse with the other dry ingredients in your brownie or truffle recipe.

    Delicious

    I grew up with dulse being a treat bought on a day trip to the Irish seaside. Although this is finely flaked, it is available all year round and the taste is superb. I first used it to make dulse butter and then dulse shortbread. Both delicious, although I could just eat the flakes off a spoon. Order arrived in time and was well packed, although Royal Mail failed the 24 hr target.

    Dulce is delicious

    I put this on meat and fish dishes. It has a deeper slightly smoky flavour I think. I alway have some in a shaker on the table instead of salt.

    Brilliant Seasoning

    Great on fish or egg dishes, these flakes give a different take on seasoning. A unique flavour a bit like sea salt on steroids. As a great source of iodine, they’re heathland too!
