Sea Vegetable Celebration or Cooking the Indian Way

Sea Vegetable Celebration: Recipes Using Ocean Vegetables

Throughout history sea vegetables have been a staple in the diets of coastal people around the world. Ounce for ounce they are higher in vitamins and minerals than any other food group, and many varieties are high in protein and dietary fiber. These recipes will help you enjoy this tasty family of foods in a wide selection of familiar, meatless dishes—everything from salsa and chips to dips, salads, soups, stir-fries, desserts, and pizza. Learn about the different types of sea vegetables, their individual qualities, and how to use each of them. They're great for pets, plants, and as beauty aids too!
