Shony Seaweed Blend

£5.45

These delicate but tasty flakes of ruby, emerald and jade seaweeds provide a versatile flavour boost and natural alternative to salt.

Mara Seaweed's Shony is a unique blend of three seaweeds: sugar kelp, oarweed and dulse.

The deep umami sweet and savoury flavours of sugar kelp and oarweed (another variety of kelp) combine with the rich, smoky and salty taste of dulse to provide a fusion of flavour, a wonderful combination of natural colours and a great source of nutrition. It's even been described by Paul Hollywood as "inexplicably delicious"!

Mara Seaweed is harvested sustainably from the pure, wild waters around Scotland and Ireland. To avoid contamination, the seaweed is packed into sealed sacks before being brought up the beach and delivered fresh, directly to the factory. The seaweed is picked and processed within 24 hours to lock in flavour, ensure quality and secure maximum nutritional benefits.

Shony is named after the Hebridean sea god, Seonaidh (pronounced “show-knee”).

How to use

Try Shony as a seasoning. Sprinkle it generously on salads to bring out lighter flavours; use it like dried herbs to make a savoury rub; or stir through oil as a coating for roasted vegetables. Shony also works well in baking and desserts.

Wakelyns Garlic Bulbs, Organic

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

Sorry, not available right now £1.99

Wakelyns organic garlic has now sold out for this year, sorry!

The perfect accompaniment to our beans (or peas or lentils or...): a few cloves (or a whole bulb) slowly cooked with your soaked pulses, some stock, a few herbs…

RealVeg work a few alleys between the fruit trees near the farmhouse at Wakelyns. The CSA structure they use means their customers take a simple share of the harvest, to share the risks and the rewards of growing. They also help on the land, planting, weeding, harvesting. Not customers in the usual sense - it’s a brilliant way of doing things.

This year and last year RealVeg set aside a bit of ground to grow garlic. In the spirit of the CSA model we've agreed to share the risk - whatever they grow, we’ll buy. They grew A LOT, but it turns out lots of people wanted delicious garlic (some even made it up to Small Food Bakery in Nottingham), so the ‘risk’ wasn’t such a risk after all - it was more a promise that enabled something brilliant to happen.

Do you want to share the reward with us? We have a few hundred bulbs available - order while stocks last!

And if you’d like to find out more about CSA check out the CSA Network UK. Another great working example of a CSA is Norwich Farmshare. We think of Norwich FarmShare as our sister enterprise as, like Hodmedod, they grew out of the Norwich Resilient Food Project, a community-led effort to create a more diverse, resilient food system for Norwich.

Wakelyns garlic is deliciously aromatic and pungent. Use like any garlic bulb.
