Hand Cut Nori Seaweed Strips

Nori are thin dried seaweed sheets, usually use to wrap sushi. It's a good source of fiber, iron and protein. I often use it as a toppings for my little one's dishes. It enhance the visual appearance of my dishes, also adding texture and taste. I personally prefer to buy big sheets of unseasoned Nori Seaweed to hand cut. It is cost saving, about 4 times cheaper. Also I can cut to my desirable shapes and sizes, more flexibility this way.

How to hand cut Nori Seaweed Sheets into thin strips?

"You will need a pair of scissors, a tray and a small container."
Start by folding it into symmetrical side. Cut along the folding lines into smaller sections.
There is no right or wrong size. It really depends on how thin you want it to be.
Stack it together, continue to fold and cut.
Once you have determine the length of your Nori Seaweed Strips, start to cut it into thin strips.

Tips: The moment you snap your scissors, the Nori Seaweed Strips starts to fly everywhere. Hence it's wiser to use a clean dry tray.
