where to get nori

[jimmyj7090]

anybody know where to get nori around here? i live in the Framingham area

[KAS]

I either get it in the ethnic food aisle at my local supermarket or at an asian market (I have several of them nearby). I have found that most of the supermarkets are carrying nori now but the asian market usually has a better selection that is less expensive.

Hope this helps..

Hi Jimmy
I'll be in town Saturday before the meeting, if you nee nori I could stop by a chinese grocery store and pick some up for you or anybody else who want some. Just let me know before end of tomorrow.

I go to the bread and circus in Framingham on Rt 9. They have the untoasted there for $4.69 which is the super large package.
10 sheets of 10" x 10".

'nother stupid question, what's nori?

[moe_k]

Dennis,
Nori is a type of dried seaweed pressed into very thin sheets. You may have eaten some as the seaweed "wrapper" on some typse of sushi, like California rolls.
Nori makes excellent tang food. Tear off a peice apprx 3" x4", roll it into a Nori-cigarette, and insert it into a lettuce clip. Tangs love it. I like to soak my Nori in vitamin supplements first - I use Kent's Zoe and Kent's Zoecon for vitamins. Other folks like Selcon.
Your herbivorous fish will thank you for it.

Ming's supermarket, Washington Street in Boston. Huge supply of multiple different types of algae sheets. $0.99 for a 3 oz. bag. My tangs love the stuff I get from this place.

I went to Ming's today. Boy did I get lost!

The address is 1102 Washington Street if anyone else is going to make a pilgrimage for tang food.

I got 3 big bags for under $4 :) Helluva deal.
