½ cup water
2-3 tablespoons tahini (sesame paste)
1 tablespoon umeboshi paste
½ cup dulse flakes
3 scallions, finely chopped (optional)
 
Warm the water, add tahini and stir until creamy. Stir or blend in umeboshi paste. Mix thoroughly. Stir in dulse and/or scallions.

 Dulse-Pumpkin Seed Condiment
1 cup dried pumpkin seeds
1 tablespoons dried dulse flakes
1/2 teaspoons sea salt
 
In a small skillet, dry roast the seeds on medium heat, stirring constantly, until the seeds pop. Remove and let cool. Preheat oven to 400°F. On a baking sheet, place the dulse and bake for 3-5 minutes. Using a blender, blend together the cooled seeds and dulse. Use immediately or refrigerate until ready to use.
