1, different processing methods
There are many kinds of lavers, mainly Porphyra yezoensis, Porphyra haitanensis and Porphyra yezoensis. Dried Porphyra haitanensis sold in the market is generally a product made from Porphyra haitanensis by drying and pressing. Porphyra yezoensis is a product made by cutting, drying and baking.
2. Different nutritional values
Laver contains more dietary fiber than protein, and laver contains more vitamins, iodine, selenium and other substances, so generally speaking, the nutritional value of laver is higher than that of laver, but the taste is not as good as that of laver.
3, the appearance is different
Porphyra we see every day is generally processed into round cakes, while seaweed is pressed into thin slices, so we can easily distinguish it from each other in appearance.
4. Different ways of eating
Seaweed mainly appears in people's eyes as snacks, which can be eaten directly or used for cooking. Porphyra is generally used as an ingredient and needs to be cooked before eating.
5, the price is different
Due to different production methods, there are also great differences in price. Generally speaking, the price of laver is higher than that of laver because the processing method of laver is relatively simple.
6, salt is different
During the processing of seaweed, some substances such as salt and monosodium glutamate will be added, which makes the salt content of seaweed much higher than that of laver. Can't be eaten for a long time, and the consumption can't exceed one or two at a time.
