01 · Overview

Korean seaweed. In a noodle format built for the health food market.

Seaweed is one of Korea's most consumed natural ingredients — it appears in soups, side dishes, snacks, and now in noodle format. The production of kelp-based noodles has grown from a Korean domestic health food product into an internationally traded item as Western markets have developed interest in seaweed as a superfood ingredient. Korean manufacturers bring the most established seaweed processing expertise to this product.

Seaweed noodles (also sold as kelp noodles in international markets) offer a distinctive combination: very low calorie content, no gluten in the main ingredient, and a slightly translucent, gel-like texture that is different from wheat or rice noodles. They work as a cold salad noodle (as in Korean naengmyeon-adjacent preparations), stir-fried with sauce, or as a warm soup noodle.

The seaweed source, processing method, and full nutritional data are in the product specification. Contact DEMORE to request it.

Profile 01

Low calorie

Seaweed noodles are very low in calorie relative to their volume — kelp's carbohydrate structure (primarily alginates and fucoidan) delivers very few calories while providing the physical bulk of a noodle serving. The exact calorie figure is in the product data sheet.

Profile 02

Mineral-rich
