Sea Lettuce Harvest with Patagonia

Harvesting sea lettuce was one of my favorite things to do during my time as the Farm Chef at Hog Island Oyster Co. and I was lucky enough to have Patagonia document that in one of their work wear ads! After harvest I wash and dehydrate this verdant and fresh tasting seaweed and turn it into a Tomales Bay Sea Lettuce Furikake or a kettle corn seasoning for popcorn, these are two of my signature uses but there are many others for this versatile and beautiful seaweed.
