Super Super Bowl Snack: ajitsuke-nori

Lately ajitsuke-nori has been supplanting kale chips as my paleo snack of choice. Ajitsuke-nori is nori toasted with a nasty paste, typically made from soy sauce, rice wine, fish paste, and chili pepper. You can buy it as a Japanese grocery, but it's hard to find without gluten-containing soy sauce. You can make it yourself simply by painting a sheet of nori with a mixture of gluten-free soy sauce, rice wine, and your favorite flavorings. Brush it on and toast until the coating is dry and the nori crispy...voila! A delicious snack rich in iodine and other essential minerals.

Nice! My kale chips always fall apart for some reason. Ajitsuke-nori seems much more sturdy and iodine-rich.
