Allergens: Cannot guarantee crustacean or mollusc free.
Storage: This product is supplied ambient. Store in a cool dry place and best to use within a year. Once opened we recommend that you use within 28 days.
What is it?
We use only the best hand harvested Welsh Sea Salt mixed with sustainably harvested laver and dulse seaweed.
Halen Mon salt
The salt is filtered naturally via mussel beds and a sandbank. Once naturally filtered the salt water is gently heated in a vacuum, so that it boils at a low temperature. The salt water then gradually releases steam and starts to turn into a very salty brine. When the concentration of the salt in the water is high enough, Halen Mon release it into shallow crystallisation tanks and leave it there to allow the sea salt crystals to form. Once the crystals have formed, it is then harvested by hand. Finally, the flakes are rinsed in brine until they shine.
The seaweed blend
The laver and dulse seaweed are always harvested by hand in a sustainable manner and then washed several times to remove all the sand, molluscs, and any crustaceans. It is then slowly dried over 24 hours and then for the last hour toasted to maximise the flavour.
The seaweed and salt flakes are then combined and our wonderful mermaids confetti and then sealed into handy jars, ready to use and become a staple part of your pantry or cupboard. A perfect accompaniment to all dishes and creative cooking.
What does it taste like?
Fresh salty flavours combined with the earthy undertones of the dulse seaweed and then the olive mariney, laver seaweed flavour.
Nutritional Information
Laverbread is rich in potassium, manganese, iron, calcium, and protein. The level of protein is the highest of all the seaweeds and said it can be between 30-50% protein. The Pembrokeshire Food Company team found this percentage staggering and didn't quite believe it so they sent a sample of dried laver to the labs every month for a year to monitor protein levels and how they change according to the seasons: on average per 100g sample, dried laver holds 35% protein, meaning that gram for gram, Laver contains more protein than chicken.
In addition, Laverbread is a powerhouse of vitamins and amino acids and has particularly high concentrations of Vitamin A, B2, B9, and C. Amino acids are essential for muscle development and strength. Vitamin A is important for the immune system and helps support bone health and eye health. Vitamin B9 is important in red blood cell formation and healthy cell growth. Vitamin C helps boost antioxidant levels, lower blood pressure and helps the body repair itself.Dulse seaweed provides a good source of potassium, iron, fibre and is particularly rich in iodine and vitamin B6.
Iodine’s most important role is to ensure proper thyroid function and helps regulate production of the thyroid hormones T4 and T3. Vitamin B6 promotes happiness and reduce symptoms of depression, also helps with brain health and improves your immune system.
How to use it?
Mermaids Confetti is definitely a store cupboard essential. And probably something to consider as a desert island necessity. Season away, from your morning eggs to your rainbow salads to your roasted potatoes. Even try a little pinch in porridge. Treat it like normal salt, as each sprinkle will be simply adding an extra depth of flavour to your dishes. An all-time Beach Food favourite is homemade dark chocolate with a sprinkle of Mermaid Confetti on top.
