Kelp is a kind of seaweed with high iodine content. Generally, it contains 3 to 5‰ of iodine, and as much as 7 to 10‰. Iodine is one of the essential elements for the human body, so eating some kelp in moderation is good for the body, but don’t eat too much~~~ Generally, the kelp knots bought are stewed in soup with ribs, or cooked in hot pot. can. I really like the soft texture of kelp. If it is kelp, it can be served cold, stir-fried, etc., and there are many ways to eat it. Today I used the braised method, and the taste is quite good~~~"
