Commonly known in Korea as Gimjaban, Sajo Seasoned Seaweed Flakes are the ultimate “rice thief”—a side dish so savory and addictive it makes every bowl of rice disappear. These flakes are made by finely shredding premium seaweed, roasting them to a perfect crisp, and stir-frying them with a blend of sesame oil, salt, and a touch of sugar.

Unlike flat seaweed sheets, these loose flakes offer a satisfying crunch and a multi-dimensional flavor profile that is simultaneously salty, nutty, and slightly sweet. It’s a versatile pantry staple that adds an instant “umami” upgrade to any meal.
