- Roasted or steamed vegetables, such as asparagus or new potatoes, deliciously flavored with a drizzle of seaweed oil just before serving.
Precautions and tips for cooking
To preserve the benefits of seaweed oil, we recommend using it raw or at the end of cooking. If heated to too high a temperature, it could lose some of its essential fatty acids. Here are a few tips to make the most of it:
- Incorporate it into your homemade vinaigrettes.
- Drizzle it over a hot dish just before serving.
- Mix it with a little butter for a fragrant express sauce for fish or shellfish.
