Baking with Michelle Darmody: Seaweed breads and biscuits

Seaweed can be used as a binding or gelling agent in baking or desserts, but that is not the use I am making of it here.

Here it is simply for taste, roughage, and goodness. You do not need a large amount of seaweed in your diet but some of it is very beneficial. It grows all along Ireland’s shorelines and has been harvested by coastal communities for generations.
