Seaweed for Sushi

A farm on the Ariake Sea

Do you ever wonder where those delicious green sheets of dried seaweed that hold your sushi rolls together comes from?  It’s possible that it was grown just across the street from where we live.  All of those poles jutting up and out of the water in the picture above are supporting nets that are used to grow seaweed laver.  I’ve been told this area is famous for its nori (the green sheets of seaweed).  I can personally vouch for it’s yumminess.  In fact, I had some with my rice and miso soup for breakfast.
