Culinary Development / Chef Shui Ishizaka

Reccomended Recipe

Narrator: Shui Ishizaka |

Originally from Sydney, he won an U30 cooking contest in Australia, and was in charge of food development as sous chef at INUA, which earned two Michelin stars just one year after opening in Tokyo in 2018. After that, he encountered sea vegetables, and while diving into the ocean to research them, he wanted to bring out the appeal of seaweed from an edible perspective, so he joined the team.



To date, he has worked with over 100 types of seaweed in his company's test kitchen, and has been promoting the potential of seaweed as an ingredient, which is unknown even in the culinary industry.

Very unique among seaweeds

I first met the folks at Sea Vegetable around November 2020. I remember them bringing dried Suji-Aonori to my kitchen.

When I tasted it for the first time, I thought it was fresh and made right then. The dried aonori I'd eaten before wasn't bad at all, but I never knew when it was processed or how long it sat on store shelves. But I still remember thinking Sea Vegetable's Suji-Aonori was freshly dried from raw seaweed.

Plus, the briny seaweed flavor was subdued, giving it a refreshing aroma. I thought, “This is the pure scent of aonori.”

Sea Vegetable's high-quality processed Suji-Aonori

Fresh Suiji-Aonori requires extra effort to become useful. Whether it turns out delicious depends heavily on the user's knowledge and skill.
That's why when Sea Vegetable expertly dries the best Suji-Aonori, it instantly becomes something incredibly easy to use in cooking.
Risotto is absolutely delicious with it. Mixing it in at the end, then adding more on top after plating is supremely tasty. I also think it's great with fish pan-fried in butter. Sprinkle the dried Suji-Aonori into the pan at the perfect moment when the fish is done, then serve immediately. That's delicious too.

Just sprinkle or mix it into your food to add flavor.

Dried Suji-Aonori has the power to instantly transform a dish with just a pinch when you want to add that aroma. Simply open the packet and sprinkle or mix it into your cooking to impart its delicious flavor.

So in a way, I think Japan has found the tastiest uses for dried green laver flakes—in things like okonomiyaki and potato chips. But there must be other foods that pair well with this aroma, so I hope you'll try different combinations.
