If you're curious about seaweed but not sure what to expect taste-wise, you’re in for a treat! Seaweed’s unique, savory flavor profile has made it a beloved ingredient in various cuisines around the world. But at Kelpie Cove, we’ve taken seaweed’s natural umami taste and crafted three unique seasonings—BBQ, Ranch, and Classic—that bring exciting new flavors to your table. Here’s a guide to each of our seasonings, plus some creative ideas on how to use them in your favorite dishes.
The Taste of Seaweed: Earthy, Savory, and Full of Umami
Seaweed is known for its umami flavor, which is that mouth-watering, savory taste you might recognize in soy sauce, mushrooms, or aged cheeses. It has subtle notes of saltiness from the sea, balanced with earthy undertones that bring depth to any dish. Think of it as a natural flavor enhancer that can complement a variety of foods. And with our Kelpie Cove flavors, you can enjoy seaweed’s deliciousness in ways that match your personal taste.
Kelpie Cove’s Flavor Profiles: BBQ, Ranch, and Classic

The blend combines classic BBQ spices with the umami of seaweed, creating a unique taste that enhances anything from grilled dishes to roasted vegetables.
How to Use It:
Sprinkle on Roasted Veggies: Toss carrots, zucchini, or sweet potatoes with olive oil and a generous sprinkle of BBQ seasoning before roasting. The smoky flavor adds a new twist to veggies.
