Aosa is also known as hitoegusa or sea lettuce in English. Its soft texture and aroma make it so versatile that you can enjoy it with any type of dish. In Japan, it is commonly consumed with miso soup, tempura, vinegared dishes, and onigiri rice balls.
This Aosa specifically is harvested in Kagoshima prefecture, located on Kyushu Island in the Southern Region of Japan. Kagoshima specifically is famous for producing some of the tastiest and most aromatic Aosa in Japan.
Before consumption, make sure to rehydrate the aosa seaweed.
Aosa is very delicate: it is vulnerable to heat, humidity, and light, so be sure to store it in the refrigerator.
While Aosa is commonly added into miso soup, it is a versatile ingredient that can be added into many different kinds of dishes. Feel free to get creative in the kitchen and add aosa into your favorite dishes.

Quality was good, but in two months they are expiring. Disappointed. They were old stock...
JTJapanese Taste Business8/19/25Hi Yuko,
Thank you very much for your feedback.
We are sorry that we could not meet your expectations.
Please note that this product has a shelf life of only six months from the date of manufacture, and the time is further shortened due to international shipping.
We will share your comments internally for improvement.
We truly appreciate your continued support. - ATAmanda T.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1/12/25Great taste and convenient
I’m so happy this is sold here since it’s difficult to find aosa, even in Japanese groceries (in the US). I like to add it to miso soup, it’s very convenient since you don’t need to rehydrate it separately like wakame. It also has a nice savory, umami taste.
