Kelp Ravioli
Ingredients
- 500 ml water for cooking
- 500 ml white vinegar
- 100 g fresh kelp frond

- 10 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 10 g vegan parmesan
- 1 sprig wild rosemary
- 2 ml black pepper

Instructions
- Portion the kelp frond and create a ravioli pocket as per the demonstration.
- In a pot, add water and vinegar and bring to the boil. Blanch the kelp pockets for approximately 3-5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the kelp. Remove the kelp pockets with a slotted spoon, refresh under cold water and drain.
