Royal kombu: sugarweed from the Atlantic Sea

Royal kombu is the king of seaweeds. It is a type of kelp that grows wild in the Atlantic coastal waters and is sometimes called sugarweed.

Royal kombu tastes surprisingly sweet and slightly salty. When the seaweed washes ashore and dries, you can see a white layer forming. This is mannitol, a natural sweetener that has 0.7 times the sweetness of sugar. Hence the nickname sugar seaweed.
