AMAZING SEAWEED - Palmaria palmata or the new bacon

The red algae Palmaria palmata, also called dulse is a well-known snack food. It's a very healthy food with a high content of proteins and fibers. Fresh, Palmaria tastes a little bit like hazelnut, but apparently when this seaweed is fried, it tastes like...bacon!

I've never tried it fried but it's definitely something that I will try once I'll be back to my home sweet home (where Palmaria is very easy to get, as you can see in the picture below).
