A lustrous green treasure of concentrated nourishment. It has a unique quality in cooking, harmonizing and enhancing flavors of the foods it's prepared with. This remarkable ability is the result of kombu's high natural concentration of glutamic acid, the inspiration and original source of most modern flavor enhancers and tenderizers. That is why kombu is almost always used in preparing soup stocks and stews, and for cooking highly digestible beans.
