It is funny because I eat seaweed just fine with sushi but I don't find it too too appetizing elsewhere. I think it is a texture thing.

Just the best.<BR/><BR/>By the way, I made the Beauty and the Beet salad for a dinner party last week and it got rave reviews, I mean it was the talk of the dinner party. I had a couple of guests help me in the final "sprinkle this and sprinkle that" part and they enjoyed working with the ingredients. So maybe I'm ready to revisit sea vegetables, now that you've gotten my husband to warm up to beets. Good job!Suzanne Yackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10493823757078107823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408874920351031218.post-89472434675098488892008-05-08T07:52:00.000-07:002008-05-08T07:52:00.000-07:00Koreans, hostile?! Where've you been hanging out? In my circle they are the most genteel of people I know. <BR/><BR/> If by "Zen " Koreans you mean those that are "spiritually enlightened " I know quite a few. Most, however; didn't grow up in this country like you did so you probably find them "unenlightened " when it comes to breaking from 5,000 years of traditions.<BR/><BR/>My hubby loves the seaweed soup and I make it quite often. I will try your very creative version.<BR/><BR/> Actually, when Spring arrives I'm hankering for some Bibimbap because of all those yummy vegetables.Carolyn gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08026451200405491815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408874920351031218.post-24812599423833045232008-05-08T05:48:00.000-07:002008-05-08T05:48:00.000-07:00OMG!

The difference is that Koreans will eat it more in salads and Japanese in soups.<BR/>Talking of seaweed, it has been collected in Europe for millenia as fertilizer. Now the French found another (very) important use for it! Have you ladies ever suspected that everytime you use gel (jel) in your make-up is exclusively made from seaweed?<BR/>Cheers and congratulations for a great posting!<BR/>Robert-GillesDragonlifehttp://shizuokagourmet.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408874920351031218.post-60312246052162359752008-05-07T08:30:00.000-07:002008-05-07T08:30:00.000-07:00Hi!
