All about nori

Nori seaweed sheets, famous for their distinctive umami flavour, are a key ingredient in Japanese cuisine, featuring in rice bowls, sushi, salads and soups. 

The use of nori in Japanese food dates back to at least the 8th century. Initially consumed as paste, nori sheets emerged in 1750 during the Edo period using paper-making techniques, leading to the creation of popular dishes like onigiri. Considered commoner’s food due to their affordability and availability, nori sheets thrived in street food for their long shelf life and accessibility. By the 18th century, roasted nori was a dietary staple in Japan.

Today, nori is a major Japanese export, with Japan producing billions of nori sheets annually, much of it from the Ariake Sea in Kyushu. But nori isn’t just food – it’s a key part of Japanese culture. It plays a significant role in traditional festivals and in family life, such as making onigiri for picnics or travel. There’s even a Nori Day (February 6th), where the cultural importance of nori seaweed sheets is celebrated. 

Whether you’re making classic maki rolls or temaki cone-shaped hand rolls, the key ingredient that holds everything together is nori seaweed sheets. High-quality nori ensures a neat sushi roll, best used with a bamboo sushi rolling mat for easy preparation. 

With our premium sushi nori sheets, making fantastic sushi at home is more accessible than ever. Grab some roasted seaweed sheets and delicious fillings of your choice today and get started!

Frequently asked questions

Nori is made just from seaweed! Japanese nori used to be eaten in paste form. However, nori sheets were invented in 1750, when traditional paper-making techniques were used to make the iconic nori seaweed sheet we know and love today.
