There are several different countries that produce seaweed for sushi.
Growing seaweed on the seabed is done with the same care and dedication as organic strawberries are produced in Europe.
The countries that produce seaweed for sushi are China, Korea and Japan. I have tasted different types of seaweed for sushi from the 3 different countries and there is a great difference in appearance, consistency and taste. Some types of seaweed taste a lot of sea but others are more neutral in taste.
Personally, I am mostly for seaweed types that do not taste too much of sea and which are crisp in consistency.
At the Sushi course for beginners the attendances learn more about seaweed for sushi.
