Product information "Irish moss organic"

Irish Carragheen Moss

Irish carragheen moss is an algae that grows mainly on rocks along the Atlantic coast of Europe. It was first discovered near Ireland, hence the name.

Why consume Irish moss?

Irish moss is thought to contain at least 15 essential elements that are key components of the human body. Some of the elements found in the algae, which are present in impressive quantities: Calcium, potassium, iodine and vitamins such as A, D and E.

The main health benefits of Irish moss are due to its high carrageenan content (up to 71%). This substance has been used for centuries as a traditional medicine to make medicinal teas and cough syrups to combat colds, bronchitis and even hangovers after excessive alcohol consumption.

We appreciate that Irish Moss soothes the digestive and respiratory tracts and is excellent for sensitive guts and stomachs. Ideal food for sensitive people.

Irish moss is the main source of carrageenan, which is used as a vegan thickening agent in many products and recipes and has recently been patented as an antiviral agent. It is the vegan version of gelatine and is widely used as a thickening agent in stews, sauces, jams and many desserts.

We have used Irish moss in several dessert recipes and it works wonderfully to make them airy and light, and it reduces the large amount of nuts needed, which is often used in vegan recipes. It also contributes a large amount of minerals to recipes and is virtually flavourless. A perfect addition to smoothies.

Last but not least, it is a very affordable and easy way to include many minerals in our diets that might otherwise go to waste.

Irish moss for the skin

Our personal experience is that it is very good for dry skin, including eczema and other skin conditions. We always keep a jar of Irish Moss nearby to use on our skin.

What makes our Irish Moss special?

The harvesting area is in Kilcar/Donegal in the north-west of Ireland. Harvesting is done by hand, with great respect and care for the marine environment.

The harvested seaweed is rinsed on the shore and then dried at low temperatures to preserve its rich nutritional content.

Our organic certification requires that all seaweed is harvested only from clean shores, free from contamination, that the seaweed is processed within just a few hours and that the harvesters work with the utmost respect for the marine environment. In addition, regular analyses ensure that all algae products are safe and healthy to eat.

Algaran also guarantees with full documentation that their seaweed is only of local Irish origin, that it contains no heavy metals (contamination index), that processing temperatures never exceed 30°C and that it is freshly harvested (date of harvest is on the label).

Interesting facts about Irish moss

The Irish people used the seaweed during the Irish famine in the 19th century and since then its popularity has grown exponentially. Irish moss also grows on rocks on Jamaica's shores and its popularity on the island grew when the Irish brought their traditional use of the seaweed to the island.

It is one of the most commonly used seaweeds. In Ireland, for example, it is traditionally used for colds and as a tonic in the cold winters, while in other countries it is also known as an aphrodisiac.

Use of Irish moss | Recipe recommendation

The basic jelly made from Irish moss contains all the minerals and nutrients of the plant and can be used in delicious desserts. The basic jelly is made as follows:

Soak 20g of Irish moss in a bowl of cold water for 30-60 minutes and then rinse. Pour 9dl of water and the soaked Irish moss into a pan.

Bring to the boil and simmer for 30 to 60 minutes. Stir from time to time to ensure the mixture does not stick to the bottom of the pan.

The Irish moss will break into pieces and the mixture will become gelatinous.

While the mixture is still warm, remove any fragments that have not yet dissolved and pour the gel into sterilised bottles and keep in the fridge. Use a spoonful in desserts, soups, stews, sauces, smoothies or dissolve in water for a soothing tea (add your favourite spices). It will keep in the fridge for several weeks. When it starts to smell slightly spicy, the mixture is spoilt and can no longer be used.

Irish moss is also excellent to apply to the skin: for burns, chapped skin, eczema and cold sores. It is very often used in the natural cosmetics industry for its soothing and antiviral properties.

Meeres-Spaghetti (Riementang) Bio

Organic sea spaghetti (seaweed) - wild harvested from the Irish Atlantic Sea spaghetti is a gluten-free and very low-calorie alternative to normal spaghetti and, like normal spaghetti, is easy and versatile to use. A healthy substitute for salt and important for vegetarians as it is rich in iodine! Seaweed or sea vegetables in general have the broadest spectrum of minerals and trace elements of all foods. Sea vegetables in general Sea vegetables are wild plants of the ocean that grow on coral reefs and rocky coasts, usually in salt water. Sea vegetables are enjoyed in many coastal regions around the world and enrich most dishes with flavour and nutrients. Sea vegetables contain almost all the minerals and trace elements that the sea has to offer! In general, sea vegetables are an excellent source of calcium, iodine and sodium, a very good source of folic acid and magnesium and a good source of iron, potassium, vitamin B2 and B5. They also contain vitamin K and trace elements such as selenium and chromium, which are often lacking in land vegetables due to depleted soils. When consumed regularly and over a long period of time, sea vegetables are said to help regulate the metabolism and energy levels, stimulate the immune system, promote regular digestion, purify the blood and support the endocrine glands - especially the thyroid gland. Sea vegetables are an ideal substitute for salt in the diet. Organic sea spaghetti (Riementang) Sea spaghetti or seaweed (Himanthalia elongata) is a special sea vegetable. It resembles spaghetti, but tastes like seaweed. Much of the seaweed flavour disappears when soaked, making it as soft as pasta cooked al dente. Mixed with a tasty, warm sauce or pesto, you can quickly and easily create a very nutritious meal. Why we love sea spaghetti We like it because it looks and feels like pasta, but with a completely different flavour, which is no bad thing! Sea spaghetti is extremely low in calories and gluten-free. They are versatile, exceptionally nutritious and fun to prepare. Organic sea spaghetti from Algaran Our sea vegetables are collected wild in the north-west of Ireland (Donegal) and harvested by hand. With the help of a cold air drying system, the seaweed is dried very gently and in raw food quality. It is best to soak the spaghetti for at least 2 hours or overnight. During soaking, the spaghetti increases in volume and becomes soft, similar to al dente cooked pasta. Sea spaghetti is delicious with a tomato-pepperoni sauce with cashew cream or tomato sauce with garlic and parsley, for example. They also taste delicious with pesto. 40g of dried sea spaghetti make about 400g of soaked sea spaghetti.

Barley Grass Juice Powder Organic with bag

Organic barley grass juice powder

Weight : 125g

Organic barley grass juice powder in raw food quality (100% natural) Why barley grass juice powder? Barley grass juice powder is often referred to as the ultimate superfood powder! Our 100% pure barley grass juice powder (without any additives (including non-declared additives) or carriers such as maltodextrin) is a great and simple alternative to barley grass powder, as not everyone has the time or inclination to grow fresh grass and press it into juice. Simply mix with water or another favourite liquid and you have pure barley grass juice. Health benefits of barley grass juice powder? Barley grass juice contains many valuable vital substances and nutrients. The chlorophyll it contains also has a beneficial effect. What makes our barley grass juice powder special? For our organic barley grass juice powder, the juice is pressed from young barley grass and then gently processed into powder. It is 100% pure juice powder, without any additives or carriers such as maltodextrin. Our organic barley grass juice powder comes from a pristine area of the USA, where it is harvested at the time of highest nutrient density. The producer has optimised the manufacturing process over many years and now guarantees raw food quality, i.e. the entire processing takes place below 42° C. The rich green colour testifies to the abundance of chlorophyll (plant green). Differences between barley grass juice powder and barley grass powder The two forms of processing into grass powder and juice powder both have their respective advantages. The main difference between grass powder and juice powder lies in the dietary fibre/fibre content. In the case of barley grass powder, this is a very high 35 to 40%. Dietary fibre has a satiating effect, stimulates digestion and prevents constipation. This barley grass juice powder, on the other hand, contains only 5.7% fibre. As a result, the nutrients and vital substances (including chlorophyll) are present in concentrated form. Another important difference is the flavour. While the grass powder tastes like dried grass (slightly bitter), this barley grass juice powder is dominated by flavours such as spinach and green herbs as well as a salty aftertaste. Both flavours can be easily distinguished visually. The barley grass powder has a much lighter green colour than the barley grass juice powder. You can find all the information about barley grass powder here. Tips for using barley grass juice powder in your everyday diet Barley grass juice powder goes perfectly with water and many other liquids such as smoothies orange juice coconut water water kefir Fresh fruit and vegetable juices Recipe with barley grass juice powder Example: Detox smoothie 1 tsp barley grass juice powder2 tbsp dried wild blueberries or 2 tbsp wild blueberry powder 1 tsp spirulina powder Hawaii, Taiwan or Austria 1 tbsp Atlantic dulse powder or 1 small handful of dulse flakes1 large bunch of fresh corianderJuice of 2 oranges 1 banana Water as required More recipes here. Recommended intake Initially ½ teaspoon daily, increase to ½ - 1 teaspoon 2-3 times daily as required. It is best to drink half an hour before meals. Storage Store in a cool, dark and dry place.As barley grass juice powder is spray-dried, it clumps more quickly than barley grass powder, which is air-dried. The clumping is caused by moisture absorption from the air. We recommend from our own experience: Always seal the pack airtight. Unfortunately, the zip of the bag sticks over time, which is why sealing clips are very practical. Pour some of the powder into a jar with a screw cap for easier handling. Store the bags/jars in a kitchen cupboard (dark) as far away from the cooker as possible (due to moisture during cooking). We do not recommend storing in the fridge, as condensation would occur. A constant room temperature is ideal. Nutritional values of barley grass juice powder per 100g (portion 1 tsp = 2g) Energy value 1351kJ/323kcal (29kJ/7kcal)Fat 1g (0.02g)of which saturated.

Spirulina algae powder Taiwan organic

Weight : 125g

Spirulina algae powder from Taiwan in organic & raw food quality (100% natural) Spirulina platensis is a single-celled, spiral-shaped blue-green algae that has existed on our planet for thousands of years. It gets its typical deep dark colour from the green of the chlorophyll and the blue of the phycocyanin. Spirulina grows in shallow waters with an alkaline pH value between 9 and 11. As it has no cellulose shell, our body can easily break down and digest its components. Why is spirulina useful as a dietary supplement? The blue-green microalgae contains a wealth of nutrients and vital substances. Spirulina powder is particularly rich in protein, provitamin A (β-carotene), iron and vitamin K. The dark colour also indicates a high chlorophyll content. SamaraNatura spirulina algae powder Taiwan BIO Our very high-quality Spirulina platensis in raw food quality comes from controlled organic cultivation in southern Taiwan. It is cultivated in accordance with Naturland guidelines, in pure drinking water under natural climatic conditions and exclusively under sunlight. Compared to other spirulina, it has a very pleasant taste and an incredibly rich blue-green colour. Due to the gentle processing, it has raw food quality. To check the quality, each batch is tested by an independent laboratory in Germany for pesticides, bacteria, algae toxins, heavy metals and radioactivity. How do I use spirulina powder? Mix ½-1 teaspoon with water 3 times a day, as an ingredient for smoothies or with fruit and vegetable juices. As with all food supplements, we recommend starting cautiously and slowly increasing the amount used over the course of a week. This will allow your body to get used to the new product and avoid unwanted side effects such as indigestion. You will usually get used to the somewhat unique flavour quite quickly. If you find using the powder unpleasant even after a few weeks, we recommend using spirulina tablets. Combining spirulina and chlorella The two algae powders are very suitable for combined use due to their nutrients. We recommend taking spirulina together with chlorella in a ratio of 2:1, whereby the total recommended daily dose must not be exceeded.

Atlantic dulse flakes from Ireland, organic & raw food quality What is dulse? Atlantic dulse or lobster seaweed (Palmaria palmata) is a red algae, crunchy with a bite and a strong purple-red colour. It does not need to be cooked or soaked and can therefore be used in many different ways in the kitchen. Dulse is extremely low in calories, fat- and cholesterol-free, rich in minerals as well as vitamin B6, fibre and protein. It has the highest iron content of all sea vegetables. 10g of dried dulse is equivalent to around 100g of fresh dulse. Why consume dulse? Dulse is one of the easiest sea vegetables to use. It tastes mild and spicy and adds flavour and colour to any dish. It is also one of the few purple-coloured foods and purple is the colour of spiritual consciousness, the third eye. What makes our dulse flakes from Ireland special? The dulse seaweed comes from quality producers in Ireland. After harvesting, the wild-growing organic dulse is dried very gently and in raw food quality using a cold air drying system. They are then ground into flakes. Please note: Due to the wild harvest, small mussels may adhere to the dulse leaves. The producer himself and we check the purity as well as possible when packing into the bags. For safety reasons, we ask you to briefly check the dulse flakes before eating them. Varying consistency (bite resistance) The consistency (firmness) of the dulse flakes can vary depending on the batch and season. This may be due to the time of harvest or the development of the individual plants at the time of harvest. Dulse algae are wild-growing plants. They are generally harvested shortly before flowering so that the plants are still young enough to be sufficiently tender. Prolonged soaking or heating (boiling) reduces the bite strength. How to use dulse flakes? Dulse has been traditionally harvested for generations and can be eaten straight from the bag (rinsed beforehand if necessary) or used as an ingredient in smoothies (e.g. for detox smoothies).
