Nori is a type of dried edible seaweed commonly used in Japanese cuisine, particularly as a key ingredient in sushi rolls. It originates from coastal regions of East Asia, where it has been harvested and enjoyed for centuries. Rich in nutrients, nori is a great source of iodine, vitamin B12, and manganese, as well as fiber and protein. It contains antioxidants and may support thyroid health due to its iodine content. Low in calories and fat, nori is a healthy addition to a balanced diet. However, it is naturally high in sodium, which individuals monitoring their sodium intake should consider. Nori can be consumed as sheets, flakes, or seasoning, adding unique umami flavor and texture to soups, salads, and snacks. When opting for nori, look for varieties free from added preservatives or excessive salts for the most wholesome benefits.
