Ingredients
- 1 cup dried raw sea moss
- 2 cups of cold water
- ½ lime or lemon
Timing
- Prep Time: 10 Minutes
- In-active Time: (12 hours)
- Total Time: 12 Hours + 10 Minutes
Method
- Add the dried sea moss to a large bowl, cover it with cold water and squeeze in lime or lemon juice.
- Ensure that all of the sea moss is covered with water and allow the sea moss to soak for 5-6 hours or overnight.
- The sea moss will expand, lightly scrub the sea moss to remove dirt, change the water and re-soak for 5-6 hours or overnight.
- The sea moss will further expand, allowing you to remove any dirt and debris visible.
- Drain and rinse the sea moss with water until it runs clear. Then place the sea moss in a clean bowl.
- To the high-powered blender, add the sea moss and enough water to cover it. Blend until smooth or up to 2 minutes.
- Transfer the sea moss to an airtight container and refrigerate or transfer to an ice cube tray and freeze. That’s all you need to do to make sea moss gel.
Notes
- You can add a teaspoon or cube of sea moss to your smoothie and juice.
- Store sea moss in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freezer for three months maximum.
- The natural purple sea moss used in this recipe was gifted from source Mama-sia.
