Bord à Bord, the gardeners of the seas.
Bord à Bord collects and processes edible seaweed from Brittany.
The wild seaweed is picked on foot by fishermen in Roscoff. Some fishermen choose to access the harvest area by boat. This is also an easy way to get the culture to its destination.
Bord à Bord is based in Roscoff on one of the largest seaweed fields in Europe.
The seaweed is then tumbled in three large seawater vortices, paying attention to the texture and flavor of the seaweed. In a combination of salt and cold storage, the algae are refined and stored for several months.
Drying takes place at low temperatures. Every week, the salted seaweed is immersed in seawater and desalinated. As a result, they regain their original, slightly salty taste and develop their unique aroma.
