The Prick’s not askin’ too many questions, if ya know what I’m sayin’, but apparently it’s still possible to get Japanese kombu in Australia despite reports of a general ban on the stuff. It seems the good folks down at Chef’s Armoury have got a hook-up — I’ve just ordered a couple of packs myself with an eye towards some Japanese soups and trying my hand at some of those yummy smoked eel parfait-and-kombu gelee cylinders they do down at Bentley. Check it out.

I love all kinds of Japanese seaweed, so at my lunch break I clicked on the “Check It Out” link at work: But the AT&T-provide firewall blacklist declared the site ‘chefsarmoury.com’ was disallowed due to “Weapons”!
Imagine that: “Police! Stop! Or I’ll smear a delicate Nori paste onto your upper palate!”
HI, and thank you for this link. I actually didn’t reialze until just now that Australian customs had been blocking kombu imports, I always just thought I was unlucky and that shops were out of stock. To say I am pretty pleased about knowing where I can get some kombu would be an understatement.
