This window of time in rural west-coast Scotland hosted my initial research on seaweed on our dinner plates. Beach front and kitchen based research into the stigmas and apprehensions about seaweed as food in the western world. Textures, flavours and smells, how do we perceive seaweed and what can we do to make it a more appatizing food source.
