Carrageen Moss Seasoning, Wild Irish Seaweed, 60g [V]

With delicate fronds and a deep pink colour, Irish Moss has a long history in Western cuisine. It is a good gelling agent suited to desserts and savoury dishes alike. It is traditionally used in the treatment of colds and respiratory problems. It has a soothing effect on the mucous membranes throughout the body. Carrageen can be also used externally to help with wrinkles, sunburns, skin rashes. It is harvested by hand where it is cut just above the root to ensure the re-growth of the algae.

Seaweed is a rich source of several vitamins, including vitamin A (in the form of carotenoids), vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, and B vitamins. Like kale and some other leafy greens, seaweed also contains vitamin K, which plays a role in blood clotting.

Seaweed is also a rich source of several minerals, including calcium, magnesium, potassium, copper, and iron. Seaweed also has a high iodine content, especially the brown-algae varieties.
