Laverbread

I love laverbread (which is just simply a paste made from seaweed), but I can’t even get it shipped, so I have to improvise. It does take a while, and the kitchen will smell like seaweed for hours.

Dried laver

Rehydrated laver

Laverbread being prepared

• 1 3-oz pack dried laver, rehydrated
• 2 tsp white vinegar or lemon juice
• 3 tblsp olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste

1. Simmer the rehydrated laver over low heat for 6 hours until it turns into a dark pulp. 
2. Combine the laverbread, olive oil, vinegar or lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste and stir through.

Laverbread is wonderful on toast or mixed with cockles
