What Mara fans say about Shony
“Inexplicably delicious.”
Paul Hollywood, celebrity chef
“First time ever I've not wanted salt on my chips.”
Bob, aged 48
How do I enjoy Shony seaweed?

Our customers love to liberally shake Shony on their eggs at breakfast.
Try Shony as a seasoning. Sprinkle it generously on salads to bring out lighter flavours; use it like dried herbs to make a rub for chicken or pork; or stir Shony through soft butter or oil, coat fish and bake.
Shony also works in baking and desserts, such as this crumble recipe from Paul Hollywood.

Really impressed with prompt delivery and the seaweed flakes are a delicious alternative to sea salt. I have used them on fish, eggs, potatoes, in bread making and it’s great to have the added benefit of minerals which we so often lack in our diets. Would highly recommend.
