ZALG's crispy seaweed sticks are the newest algae-based innovation from the French producer and they make the most of locally grown seaweed to share a versatile, sustainable plant-based food. These seaweed sticks have a light sea vegetable filling and a layer of breadcrumbs on the outside, and they're ready to savor in varieties like lemon zest and onion.
These crispy seaweed sticks were created with the foodservice industry in mind and they're exceptionally quick cooking—it takes just 90 seconds to prepare them in a fryer. After being crisped to golden perfection, these sticks are ready to be added to everything from sandwiches and wraps to snacking platters. “We are working to make seaweed an ingredient of our French culinary heritage by positioning it at the center of the plate, from Michelin-starred restaurants to everyday dishes,” said Vincent Lacaze, co-founder of ZALG.
