There’s a joke that vegans can make bacon out of anything, and we do—anything from mushrooms to coconut and even seaweed. Dulse is reddish-brown seaweed that grows in the northern Atlantic and Pacific. Like all sea veggies, it’s a good source of vitamins and minerals, and it’s high in protein by weight.
