Seaweeds boast a variety of potential applications, including plant-based meats, soups, dressings, sauces, dips, and marinades. Not only does seaweed deliver a more indulgent “meat-like” mouthfeel to plant-based burgers, but it also creates a juicier perception and color that’s closer to ground beef. It enhances umami flavor in soups and is the perfect replacement for anchovies and Worcestershire sauce in Caesar salad dressing because it adds rich flavor—all while reducing fat and sodium.

Blue Evolution is one of the largest growers of regenerative seaweed crops in North America. With nearly all seaweed consumed in the U.S. imported, we are working to disrupt this market and sustainably grow our seaweeds in clean waters closer to our consumers.
