Purple Dulse Flakes - Single Origin Spice & Seasoning

A sea-kissed umami, boldly beautiful in color, quietly transformative in flavor.

Hand-harvested from the ice-cold, nutrient-rich waters of Canada’s Bay of Fundy, Purple Dulse is a rare pantry ally that bridges function and wonder. Solar-dried to lock in nutrients and natural aromatics, this seaweed brings a savory, nutty, mineral-rich umami that enhances dishes without overpowering them.

Rich in trace ocean minerals and naturally high in iodine, it offers a compelling alternative to excess salt—adding depth, balance, and a whisper of the sea instead of pure salinity.
