Good Food Hour – Seaweed in the Kitchen

It’s the beginning of Harvest season! And it’s probably not what you think… Today on the Good Food Hour we kick off the local harvesting of SEAWEED …Surprised?

It’s a vital industry along the California coast and it’s an exciting time as more chefs and home cooks discover its versatility. Chef John Ash has been hard at work in his kitchen working with seaweed and wants to share what he’s learned.

First we talk with local Sonoma County harvester Heidi Hermann, owner/forager of Strong Arm Farm. She provides many restaurants with seaweeds, sells at retail and leads public seaweed foraging adventures.
