Toasted Nori Mayonnaise

This toasted nori mayonnaise is an effortlessly sophisticated addition to your condiment collection, bringing a deep, umami-rich flavour to the table. By finely grinding toasted seaweed and folding it through creamy mayonnaise with a bright squeeze of lime, you create a versatile sauce that bridges the gap between simple home cooking and professional bistro fare. It is an excellent way to introduce subtle coastal notes to a variety of snacks and main courses.

As a vegetarian-friendly staple, this savoury spread is perfect for dipping golden chips, coating roasted cauliflower, or serving alongside grilled fish and seafood. The balance of salty nori and zesty citrus cuts through the richness of the mayonnaise beautifully. You can easily prepare a batch up to five days in advance, making it a convenient make-ahead option for weekend entertaining or quick weekday lunches.
