Does Sea Moss Have a Taste?

Golden Sea Moss has a mild, neutral flavour that blends easily into any recipe without overpowering the taste. It’s perfect for both sweet and savoury dishes. Purple Sea Moss has a slightly stronger, natural marine flavour.

Should I Choose Sea Moss Gel or Dried Sea Moss?

The main difference between dried sea moss and sea moss gel lies in their preparation and convenience:

• Sea Moss Gel: This is pre-prepared and ready to use, offering ultimate convenience. It’s perfect for those with a busy lifestyle or who prefer a ready-made option to easily incorporate into their meals, drinks, or skincare routines.

• Dried Sea Moss: This is sea moss in its natural, sun-dried form. It requires soaking and blending to create a gel, allowing you to control the texture and consistency. It’s ideal for those who enjoy preparing their own gel and want a longer shelf life, as dried sea moss can last up to a year when stored properly.

How Should I Store Sea Moss Gel?

Sea moss gel should be kept refrigerated. Store it in an airtight container, and it will remain fresh for up to three weeks. To extend its shelf life, freeze it in small portions (such as in ice cube trays) for up to six months. Always use a clean spoon to prevent contamination.

How Much Sea Moss Should I Use Daily?

The recommended daily intake depends on the form of sea moss you’re using:

  • Sea Moss Gel: Consume 1–2 tablespoons daily, either on its own or blended into smoothies, teas, soups, or other recipes. Adjust based on your personal dietary needs and preferences.
  • Sea Moss Powder: A teaspoon (around 3–5 grams) is typically sufficient for daily use. Mix it into drinks, sprinkle it over food, or incorporate it into recipes.
  • Dried Sea Moss: Use about 4–8 grams (a small handful) of dried sea moss to prepare your gel or for cooking purposes. If consuming directly in recipes, soak and rehydrate it first.

Always start with a smaller amount and gradually increase as needed, especially if you’re new to sea moss. If you have specific health concerns or dietary restrictions, consult your healthcare provider before use.

Can I Use Sea Moss For Skincare?

Absolutely! Sea moss is packed with vitamins and minerals that are great for your skin. It helps to hydrate, soothe irritation, and improve skin elasticity. You can apply the gel directly as a face mask or mix it into your favourite skincare recipes for an all-natural boost.

Purple vs Golden Sea Moss

Purple sea moss is richer in antioxidants with a bolder flavour, while Golden sea moss is milder and more versatile. Both provide 92 of the 102 essential minerals your body needs, but Purple Sea Moss may offer added benefits for reducing inflammation and revitalising skin. Choose Purple for a nutrient boost or Golden for a neutral, adaptable option. Both work equally well for recipes and skincare.

Good quality sea moss

The quality of the sea moss was very good. It was easy to soak and use in smoothies, or even plain water. The taste of the sea moss was not strong, but the texture was thick. It did not have a strong scent either. Great value for money. When it is purchased dry, it could be used when you want it.

Salty

Comes in a lovely container and appears to be good quality. Put it in water and then blend it up. I tried adding it to drinks but it is rather salty, so I'll do some more research on how to best use it. A lovely colour too

Little Goes Long Way

This sea moss is very strong and comes in a tall cardboard tube.It comes out is big clumps which are probably far more than you would actually need in one serving.After dunking it in water, it expands quickly and overnight it magically turns back in to some undersea beauty.Take a little of it and blend it up, and there it goes! It's quite salty, so I haven't figured out the best way to eat it yet.

Great natural way to your essential vitamins and minerals

This is a great addition to smoothies. Sea Moss has basically 100% of essential minerals your body needs and this is a great natural way to get those minerals that your body needs amongst other things like fibre amino acids omega fats etc. It's basically a superfood. I can't say I'm a fan of the taste of it on it's own as it does taste like seaweed (very salty and just that well seaweedy taste so make sure you wash it thorougly follow the instructions and soak it for 12 to 24 hours before using it this will significantly reduce the salty taste). In the smoothie though I do like it. You can taste the salt but it actually enhances my smoothies. I guess this all depends on what you put in your smoothie but the salty taste actually adds to the flavour of my smoothies. I found it works particular well with Pineapple. It if was a tad cheaper then this would get 5 stars.
