SEA PANTRY
What is a Sea Pantry?
When it comes to health foods, the ocean delivers! Fish, seafood, and seaweed are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are important nutrients for supporting heart health. But foods from the ocean – when farmed or caught sustainably – also bring big benefits to the environment.
For the sake of both human health and ocean health, it is time for us to get a taste of the SEA. If we can commit to keeping these items on hand, we can expand our palates and improve the planet at the same time.
What Items to Keep On Hand?
Take a look at my Pantry from the Sea – a treasure trove of beautiful, sustainable kelp, sea vegetables, fish, and shellfish (as well as personal care items and even pet treats containing ingredients from the sea) that support healthy living and healthy oceans.

Recipes
Recipe: Seaweed & Lemon Brined Fried Chicken
Allow me to introduce you to SEAWEED FRIED CHICKEN! Incorporate the seaweed into the brine, plus as a garnish at the end.
Recipe: Wakame Mixed Berry Galette
It may sound like an unusual combination, but I’ve fallen in love with how a healthy sprinkle of seaweed deepens the sweetness and flavor of fruit!
For this galette, I turned to my Sea Pantry for some Oceans Balance Wakame Flakes and added them to the crust, the filling, and as a garnish at the end.
Recipe: Seaweed Coleslaw
If you’re looking for a refreshing, flavorful side dish, look no further! This fun, flavorful seaweed coleslaw takes inspiration from the flavors of traditional Thai papaya salad, while incorporating seaweed.
