Dried wakame is a dark green sea vegetable sold as thin flakes or whole fronds. It rehydrates in minutes to a silky, gently chewy texture with a clean briny-sweet taste, and shows best in miso soup, seaweed salads, and brothy noodles. Common retail forms include cut wakame flakes and whole-leaf pieces.\n\nWakame (Undaria pinnatifida) is native to the coasts of Japan, Korea, and China and expanded through sea farming in the 20th century; it is now widely cultivated across East Asia and exported globally.
