Yes! It was quite chewy, tough and crunchy at the same time. I liked it so
much for the texture. Seaweed stems. Now that you mention it, it is not
unlike a more delicate seaweed appetizer I once had at a Japanese style
restaurant I believe is managed by Korean owners (Yobo's in Newburgh, NY).
Now where to find seaweed stems...and the name of this Korean dish.
