      I really only have nori and wakame on a usual basis, and have hijiki at a few restaurants (aka not often lol). It's super easy to have with soups (especially if you have any dashi based soup, which you can make with wakame) and then put on grains/noodles (nori).

      I love Dulse, when I was in EU I got them from Ireland but the same ones can be found in St-John, NB, google Manan Dulse, they are the very best, you can buy them in bulk but they will dry out though if waiting long to eat them, I use them as a dry spice then. When fresh and soft I eat them like chips, they are so addictive!!

    So cool! I buy the Whole Foods frozen organic blueberries all the time, but yesterday I got some organic fresh blueberries. They had that frosty film! Since going vegan over 3 years ago, Buckwheat Blueberry pancakes along with Field roast Sausage has become an every other weekend tradition. I made this for my 20 year old daughter and 16 year old son this morning ( both not yet fully committed to veganism, but I keep trying!) and they LOVED this breakfast! You have no idea how much this warms my heart. My son just came back from a 4 day backpacking trip to Yosemite and because 2 out of the 8 kids were vegan, they all ate Vegan food the entire trip. So Leo came home and told me he thinks he's closer than ever to being fully committed to this lifestyle. Wow!! I'm so excited. I told him about you and your channel and my hope is that he will start following you as I think you would be a very positive influence on him or any teen looking to go in this direction.. Thanks so much for your videos!!! That salad looks amazing! I was thinking a little balsamic vinegar could be good with it as well... as a thought.

    I eat blueberries every morning with my breakfast oatmeal concoction. I use frozen ones. I wish I had known earlier what I now know about whole-food plant-based eating - many years of standard western diet ended up with colon cancer and I am now a gutless bag lady for life. Still,, better late than never - I’m maintaining a really healthy weight and enjoying my food immensely, and also the adventure of learning a new method of cooking after so many years! My pantry has been transformed, and I expect my insides have, too. I love your “Amazing Foods” series - learning a lot, and getting really entertained along the way. Keep up the good work.

    Love blueberries. Incredibly nutritious, subtly sweet rather than overpoweringly sweet, easy to digest, versatile as can be, easy for people of all ages to eat, a fruit native to North America so locally sourced much of the year. A diet of seeds, nuts, berries and vegetables helps ensure a long, healthy life.

  • @tomihaili8756
    @tomihaili8756 5 лет назад

    That´s right and when you pick them straight from the forest you get some exercise too. Here in Finland we´ve clean nature to forage from. I´ve picked about 2 gallons so far. We´ve a "variant" of native blueberry without that bloom or white coating but it´s quite rare. I´m waiting for the middle of September to get some lingonberries to add to my morning porridge.

One thing though, here in Scandinavia our blueberries are alot smaller and don't grow in clusters like the ones you showed. According to the internet the "bushes" are called sprigs and the berries are called Bilberries. Anyhow, I am like you I love blueberries! Going north soon and will be spending hours picking them.
