What foods contain seaweed ingredients?

Question

I need some ideas for a school project for biology where I bring in some kind of food with either seaweed or seaweed ingredients, etc.
I don't want anything like sushi, i was thinking something more like food that people would consume on a usual teenage diet. Like cake. Ingredients that are easy to get, because I live in Germany and it's difficult to get a piece of seaweed over here, it would be better.

Thanks

Answer 1

you could always use nori (dried seaweed) and put it on top of a dish sliced up...such as Sesame Noodles...that would be good@

Answer 2

Can you just bring the prepared snack items that are sold in markets. Look in the grocery International foods section. There are wonderful little crispy cracker snack foods in bags. They are super crunchy and very tasty.

Answer 3

Ice cream. At least in the States, ice cream contains carrageenan (look to the end of the list of ingredients on the container). Most of the bottles of chocolate milk (e.g. Nesquik) use carrageenan also. Carrageenan comes from several species of red seaweed.

Another chemical derived from seaweeds is alginic acid (or alginate). This comes from brown seaweeds and is used in a number of items including salad dressings. The alginate is used to keep the oil and water ingredients mixed longer when you shake your dressing.

Hope that helps.

Answer 4

Agar, which may be extracted from seaweed, is used for dozens of different purposes - usually in food as an additive to give a thickening quality to the food.
In Canada's Maritime provinces (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island), one type of seaweed, dulse, is dried and eaten raw as a snack... salty-tasting... full of minerals.
