Dried Sea Cucumber

Our butterfly cut dried sea cucumbers have been split and cleaned for convenient, healthy home cooking. Even though they look different in shape, the skin and meat are intact and contain all the nutritional benefits found in sea cucumbers including protein, collagen, carotenoids, antioxidants and minerals.

Our football cut dried sea cucumbers are processed in traditional sea cucumber processing methods, by slicing open one end and cleaning the interior. This gives the sea cucumber a ‘football-like’ appearance, matching the shape and look of most sea cucumber found in stores.

See cucumber powder

Fifteen years of research have been invested in the development of a proprietary process that produces a powerful, concentrated and 100% natural source of sea cucumber in powder form.

This unique method retains the maximum amount of bioactive nutrients and compounds, so that the powder preserves the full nutrient value of the sea cucumber. It also allows the powder to keep its hygroscopic nature meaning that it is highly absorbable.

Bêche sea cucumber powder contains the following bioactive compounds: Saponins (Frondoside A), Fucosylated chondroitin sulfate, Amino acids, Omegas (3, 6 & 7), Marine collagen, Proteins, Phenolics, Carotenoids.

Frozen Meat

The meat of Cucumaria frondosa is prized for its firm, substantial texture and satisfying bite. Naturally tender yet pleasantly chewy, the meat holds its shape well during cooking while readily absorbing the flavours of broths, sauces, marinades, and seasonings. With its mild, clean ocean flavour, sea cucumber meat is remarkably versatile and can be braised, simmered, stir-fried, or added to soups and hot pots.

It is frozen at peak freshness to preserve the natural quality, texture, and flavour of the meat.

It comes in vacuumed sealed packaging.
