Essential for maki sushi, dried seaweed sheets also make great snacks and accompaniments to rice. Janice Leung  kelps herself
Yamamoto Noriten Yakinori
The darkest and thickest of those tried, this seaweed also had the most intense flavour. It doesn't rip easily, making it easy to use for the novice sushi roller, although its thickness means it can be a little harder to bite into.

Shirako Sugatayaki Gold
The seaweed flavour is quite pronounced. It's also quite savoury, which makes eating it as a snack rather enjoyable. Relatively thick, it has multiple layers of clearly visible seaweed, and is crunchy yet strong.
HK$58.90, ParknShop, citywide
 
Urashima Nori Sushi Hame
This is markedly lighter in colour than the others and the grassy hue seems to translate to a lighter, herbal flavour too. It is relatively thin yet quite tough, which is good for rolling, but hard to bite into. It also has unsightly dark spots.
HK$33.90, Jusco, citywide
 
Shirako Tokyo Sushinori
This dark seaweed is much rougher and the least even of those tested. It is the crunchiest, but softens very quickly when in contact with liquid. It has an obviously smoky, roasted flavour, as well as an almost herbal vegetable-like taste.
HK$28.90, Jusco, citywide
 
Ozeki Fumi Ichiban Yakinori
This thin, pale grassy green sample seems to bear more similarity to rice paper than to seaweed. It's extremely bland, save for an unpleasant herbal flavour, and is very thin. Its only redeeming factor is that it's quite strong.
HK$21.90, Jusco, citywide
