Wild Atlantic seaweed harvested from Connemara shores appears on Galway menus as dulse with oysters, sea lettuce in salads and carrageen moss panna cotta at Aniar.

Seaweed has been harvested and eaten along the Irish Atlantic coast for millennia; carrageen moss was used as a setting agent for puddings long before commercial gelatine, and dulse was gathered from the shore at low tide. The Aran Islands have the most continuous tradition of eating fresh seaweed, with islanders gathering dulse and dillisk directly from the limestone shoreline. JP McMahon at Aniar elevated Galway seaweed from subsistence food to haute cuisine ingredient, incorporating sea lettuce, dulse and carrageen into tasting menu courses.
