Hi,
What is the correct procedure to store nori sheets once you open
the package? Should they be put in the refrigerator? Thanks.

We seal them in ziplock type bags and
store in the refrigerator.

Ziplock bag with a pack of silica should be fine.

No you are wrong. Unless you plan to store nori for months, which you should
not do
anyway since the flavor quality goes down, you won't have a moisture problem
if it is
packed airtight. In fact some of the best Noris in Japan are sold in ziplock
type bags for
that purpose.
While moist Nori can be a problem,a bigger problem with Nori is the lack of
moiture, when it drys
out completely to the point that it crumbles when folded, making it useless
for most dishes.

My nori comes in airtight ziplocked bags, but has no mention of
refrigeration anywhere on the packs or the box. I havent had the
chance to experiment though. We use 100 sheet packs, and do such volume,
we go through a few of those a day. No chance to really store anything.

Thanks for the information.
