Dulse is native throughout the Atlantic Ocean, from Portugal to Iceland, as well as in the North and Baltic Sea. There it grows in intertidal areas on rocky bottoms. „Dulse“ harvested in the Pacific is other red algae species.
Appearance
Dulse forms fanned bundles like a mop, hand or palm. The leaves are dark red with a leathery surface.
Production
Dulse is harvested wild by hand in summer and fall. At low tide, the young plant is cut off above the base so that the „root“ can sprout again the following year.

Dulse is the „bacon from the sea“: In addition to the tasty ocean flavor, this seaweed species has an intense flavor of its own. Depending on the growth time and drying, metallic aromas (similar to oyster) or notes of fried fish are present. That is why it is suitable as a seasoning and for broth or sauces. Products can be enriched with additional nutrients, which allows declaring an additional health benefit.
After harvesting, the dulse leaves are gently dried at 42°C and then ground.
