Ajitsuke-nori (味付け海苔) is the seasoned style, brushed with a sweet soy glaze and usually cut small, eaten as a snack or with rice rather than used for sushi. Every nori we sell is grown and made in Japan, which is rarer than it sounds, as most nori on UK shelves is grown in Korea or China. This snack nori comes from Yamagataya, the Shizuoka nori house that makes our whole range, with the seaweed grown in the south of Japan.

It is more seasoned and moreish than a plain sushi sheet, which is the point, it is built for eating on its own. The texture is very crisp and shatters cleanly, and the eighth-cut size makes it easy to snack on or to scatter. Salty, umami-rich and a little sweet, it is as good over a bowl of rice as it is from the pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 10px 0 25px 0; border: 1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35);\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem; opacity:0.75; width:35%;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem;\"\u003eAjitsuke-nori 味付け海苔 (seasoned snack nori)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem; opacity:0.75;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem;\"\u003eYamagataya (Shizuoka)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem; opacity:0.75;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem;\"\u003eJapan (grown in southern Japan)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem; opacity:0.75;\"\u003eCut\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem;\"\u003eEighth-cut sheets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem; opacity:0.75;\"\u003eBest Used As\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border:1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); font-size:0.85rem;\"\u003eA snack or a crisp topping for rice\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 12px; border: 1px solid rgba(127,127,127,0.35); border-radius: 4px;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"padding: 12px; font-weight: 600; font-size: 0.9rem; cursor: pointer;\"\u003eWhat is the difference between snack nori and sushi nori?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"padding: 12px; font-size: 0.85rem; margin: 0;\"\u003eSushi nori is plain roasted nori (yaki-nori), unseasoned, in full sheets for rolling and wrapping. Snack nori is seasoned (ajitsuke-nori), brushed with a sweet soy glaze and cut small, made to be eaten on its own or scattered over rice. You would not roll sushi with snack nori, the seasoning and small size are wrong for it, and you would not snack on a plain sushi sheet.

The nori is grown in the south of Japan and made by Yamagataya, a Shizuoka nori house, which produces our whole nori range. That matters because most nori sold in the UK is actually grown in Korea or China; true Japanese nori is uncommon here.

Like all nori it draws in moisture from the air and will soften if left open, so close it up between handfuls. An airtight tin is ideal if you have decanted it. Eaten while crisp, it is at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yamagataya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39296609091749,"sku":"S0964","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/5621\/files\/Sushi_Sushi_Product_Shots_Sept_24_15909.jpg?v=1728766298","url":"https:\/\/www.sushisushi.co.uk\/products\/yamagataya-snack-nori-ultimate","provider":"SushiSushi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
