Seaweed Gamtae

A rare and revered Korean alga, wild-harvested by hand from clean mudflats in winter. Gamtae has been enjoyed since the Chosun dynasty but remains scarce and prized due to its delicate ecosystem requirements. Its flavor is strikingly reminiscent of white truffle, with deep oceanic and bitter-green notes that mellow into gentle sweetness
