Nori sheet is a thin, dark-green, paper-like sheet of dried seaweed. It tastes briny and savory with a toasty aroma; crisp when dry and pleasantly chewy when moistened. Used to wrap sushi and onigiri, garnish soups and noodles, and crumble over rice or salads; sold as full and half sheets or pre-seasoned strips.

Nori comes from cultivated red algae (Porphyra) processed into mats, dried, and often lightly toasted in Japan, Korea, and China. It became a staple of Japanese cuisine and spread globally with sushi, while modern aquaculture and sheet-making standardize thickness and quality.
