Exclamation Re: What is dulse?

Hans,

Dulse Palmaria palmata (Linnaeus) Kuntze grows in the Baltic Sea as well:

"Generally distributed around the British Isles. Europe: Portugal, Atlantic coasts of Spain and France, Baltic Sea, Norway, Faroes, Spitzbergen and Iceland. Greenland. Atlantic coasts of North America: Canada, Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and New Jersey. Further afield: Arctic Sea from the White Sea and Baffin Bay. Pacific coasts of North America, Alaska to California, Japan and Korea."

I don't know where is Germany you can purchase it but on your side of the Atlantic, it can be purchased at Clearspring

and in the Western Hemisphere it can be had through Simply Natural!

Here are two macrobiotic websites in Germany:

Macrobiotik in Berlin

Maybe they know where to purchase dulse, locally (also, please ask them to put up English translation pages, when you communicate with them!).

Thank you, very much.

Be well, be your best, and be blessed!

Thanks a lot
