Gims is a premium Korean seaweed snack made using a traditional method that dates back generations. We start with handmade rice porridge, spread it gently over select seaweed sheets, slow-dry them for 13 hours, and then crisp them to perfection in non-GMO plant oil. The result? A light, crunchy, and flavorful snack that’s as wholesome as it is satisfying.
Yes! Gims is naturally vegan, low to zero sugar, and made with clean, simple ingredients. Seaweed is a superfood packed with essential nutrients like iodine, calcium, and magnesium—making it a smart, guilt-free alternative to processed or greasy snacks.
We follow a meticulous, traditional process from start to finish. Gims is made using eco-friendly, unsalted dried seaweed and glutinous rice grown directly in Namwon. We prepare a handmade rice porridge, spread it gently over the seaweed sheets, and enhance it with a deep, savory flavor from vegetable stock and soy sauce. Each sheet is then slow-dried for 13 hours before being crisped to perfection in non-GMO plant oil. The result is a snack that’s clean, crunchy, and bursting with umami.
Gims is proudly made in Namwon, a town in North Jeolla Province, South Korea, known as the birthplace of traditional Korean seaweed snacks. We partner with skilled producers in the region who honor generations-old techniques, ensuring that every batch is crafted with authenticity, care, and respect for tradition.
We offer free shipping on all orders over $35. For orders under $35, a flat shipping fee of $4.99 applies. We ship nationwide, so you can enjoy Gims wherever you are in the U.S.!
