Sea Moss Gel

Irish Sea Moss is most commonly transformed into a gel. Once made into a gel, you can freeze it for 6 months or put it in the fridge to be consumed within 2-3 weeks. The gel can be taken as a scoop by itself, or added to your smoothies, desserts, soups, or curries!

If your Sea Moss was purchased frozen, you can either store it in your freezer for up to 6 months, or leave it in your fridge to thaw and consume within 2-3 weeks.

• Step 1: Thoroughly rinse/wash raw Sea Moss 3-5 times.
• Step 2: Immerse and soak in spring water, squeeze lemon/lime in order to nullify the ocean taste/smell. Soak for 12-24 hours. Alternatively, soak in boiling water for 15-20 minutes.
• Step 3: Blend to make into a gel with soaking water. Add more water depending on desired texture
• Step 4: Store in an air-tight container and refrigerate or freeze immediately. Gel will be good for 2-3 weeks in the fridge and 6 months in the freezer.

Sea Moss Gel should be refrigerated immediately upon arrival in order to preserve its freshness. The Gel has a 2-3 week shelf life in the fridge, and can last about 6 months in the freezer.

You'll know the gel has gone bad once it starts smelling/tasting a bit off when you open it. An easy solution is to freeze any gel you won't use within that 3 week timeframe, or to simply freeze them into Sea Moss Ice cubes for immediate use whenever!
