Although its name may not be particularly appetizing, bladderwrack is actually quite tasty. The plant can be used fresh, but its flavor is greatly enhanced when dried.

Bladderwrack contains significant amounts of mucilage, protein, vitamin C and polysaccharides, including fucoidans, fucans and algin. Bladderwrack is also a rich source of natural iodine and trace minerals.
