Meeres-Spaghetti (Riementang) Bio

Product information "Meeres-Spaghetti (Riementang) Bio"

Organic Sea Spaghetti (Sargassum) – Wild-harvested from the Irish Atlantic

Sea spaghetti is a gluten-free and very low-calorie alternative to ordinary spaghetti and, like it, is simple and versatile to use. A healthy substitute for salt and essential for vegetarians, as it is rich in iodine! Belt seaweed, or sea vegetables in general, contain the widest range of minerals and trace elements of any food. 

Sea vegetables in general

Sea vegetables are wild plants of the ocean that grow on coral reefs and rocky coasts, mostly in salt water. Sea vegetables are enjoyed in many coastal regions worldwide and enrich most dishes with flavour and nutrients.

Sea vegetables contain almost all the minerals and trace elements 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, and vitamins B2 and B5. They also contain vitamin K and trace elements such as selenium and chromium, which are often lacking in land-grown vegetables due to depleted soils.

If consumed regularly over a prolonged period, sea vegetables are said to help regulate metabolism and energy balance, stimulate the immune system, promote regular digestion, purify the blood and support the endocrine glands – particularly the thyroid.

Sea vegetables are an ideal substitute for salt in the diet.

Organic sea spaghetti (Himanthalia elongata)

Sea spaghetti or ribbon kelp (Himanthalia elongata) is a special type of sea vegetable. It resembles spaghetti but tastes of seaweed. Much of the seaweed flavour disappears during soaking, making it as soft as pasta cooked al dente.

Tossed with a delicious, warm sauce or pesto, you can quickly and easily create a highly nutritious meal.

Why we love sea spaghetti

We like it because it looks and feels like pasta, but has a completely different flavour – which is no bad thing! Sea spaghetti is extremely low in calories and gluten-free. It’s versatile, exceptionally nutritious and fun to prepare.

Organic Sea Spaghetti from Algaran

Our sea vegetables are foraged in the north-west of Ireland (Donegal) and harvested by hand. Using a cold-air drying system, the seaweed is dried very gently to raw food quality.

It’s best to soak the spaghetti for at least 2 hours or overnight. As they soak, the spaghetti increase in volume and become soft, similar to pasta cooked al dente. Sea spaghetti is delicious, for example, with a tomato and chilli sauce with cashew cream or a tomato sauce with garlic and parsley. It also tastes delicious with pesto.

40g of dried sea spaghetti yields approximately 400g of soaked sea spaghetti.
