Preparation: Soak the desired amount of seaweed in cold water for 30 minutes. Rinse it thoroughly, drain, and cook as needed. It expands up to 5 times its dry weight during soaking, so a small amount goes a long way.
Tip: Let the seaweed simmer in dashi, soy sauce, mirin and sugar for a classic Japanese accompaniment.
