Parsons Tinned Laverbread.120g Tinned

Parsons Tinned Laverbread is a traditional Welsh delicacy, a dark green, paste-like product made from edible seaweed (specifically Porphyra umbilicalis, also known as Laver). Harvested from the rocky coastlines of Wales, this nutrient-rich seaweed is meticulously washed, slowly simmered until tender, and then minced to achieve its distinctive smooth texture. Known for its unique umami flavour – often described as a subtle taste of the sea, sometimes compared to spinach with a slight brininess – Parsons Laverbread is a versatile ingredient and a breakfast staple in Wales, commonly enjoyed spread on hot buttered toast with crispy bacon and eggs, or mixed with oatmeal to form traditional Welsh laver cakes and fried. Packed with vitamins and minerals, including iodine and iron, it's also low in calories and fat, making it a healthy and flavorful addition to soups, stews, and other dishes, providing an authentic taste of Welsh culinary heritage in a convenient tinned format.
