1. 1Step 1: Soak the dried seaweed in cold water for 5 to 10 minutes while allowing it to expand. Drain the water away and rinse the seaweed a couple of times in running water. Drain/squeeze the water out. If you’re using non pre-cut dried seaweed, cut it with scissors – about little finger lengths. Set it aside.
