This is how you make REAL IRISH MOSS!! (Chondrus Crispus Gel)

[@VeganWithCurves]

Please understand I never said that gracilaria was not sea moss. I never said it was "fake" or that you should not use it. I have a video for that as well because I use BOTH. youtu.be/wqx2mAcdg All I said in this video as that it is not IRISH moss. The term sea moss is a generic term used to describe over 30,000 species or genuses of red algae. The term Irish Moss is a specific term used for Chondrus Crispus based on the history and where it grows. Sea Moss vs Irish Moss veganwithcurves.com/sea-moss-vs-irish-moss/ PLEASE READ the article links provided in the show notes for further explanations and please watch the video and it's full entirety. Thank you. ♥️

Young lady this was a very informative video. Thank you so much..I am glad I fell upon my purple irish sea moss!

[@KickzNBeatz]

KEY lime is the specific lime to use. Persian and other limes never become alkaline once ingested. The Key lime does! 😎

[@VeganWithCurves]

People should use whatever limes that are accessible to them. This is not an "alkaline" vegan channel. If key limes are avaliable, they can use those. If not, regular limes are just fine to use and will not harm them.

[@KickzNBeatz]

@@VeganWithCurves I thought this was an alkaline specific channel for some reason. My apologies.

[@VeganWithCurves]

@@KickzNBeatz no worries!

[@ampsa84]

Key lime is just the Same as any other lime or lemon. They all have the same citric acid. Also key lime is an hybrid like any other citrus fruit. All citrus fruits originate from Citron and mandarin, so lemons as we now it might be the closest to the original citron. Stop spreading pseudo science and go and do some research instead of parroting something here.

This video is awesome I always tell people use hot water for your seamoss it helps kill any bacteria and it makes to gel even smoother.....

[@ccelms6581]

I read your pin and saw your site, thank you for that clarification about Irish moss vs sea moss. I think the confusion about “sea moss” vs what you called the “Irish moss” in this video was very simply cultural for me. Both my parents are from Jamaica. In Jamaica (what YOU or what Americans call) the “sea moss” we call “Irish moss”. Perhaps that is not the correct name (here in the states), however, in Jamaica (for example) if you ask for “avocado” SOME may give you what you want but younger Jamaicans may look at you funny and not know what you’re talking about. If you ask for “pear” then most Jamaicans will give you (what WE in the states call) avocado. Same in this situation; if you ask any Jamaican who cooks or sells food for Irish moss, they would give you what YOU/Americans may call sea moss. I know, it’s confusing!😂 I honestly never understood why it was called Irish moss. It may have to do with some Irish influence in Jamaica 🤷🏾‍♀️, especially considering they both make that gel! However, that is perhaps why some were confused when you stated “…this is not Irish moss.” I was certainly confused! But now I am convinced it’s just a difference in our cultural vernacular. Any-hoo, thank you for introducing this new kind of sea moss! I did not know it was out there!😊

​@@VeganWithCurveswhat do I do if the gel forms? Do I clean it out?

[@twinqlez1]

Great clean and Clear video, what I would like to know is which is more beneficial and has more nutrients the cooked or uncooked version, sometimes I feel the heat will kill some of the nutrients, then sometimes some say the heat activates them....am lost!!

[@dank1thevandal]

Love the videos. I use limes while cleaning the sea moss and the soaking process.

[@jfrancis2560]

First great video I've watched several videos dealing with Chrondus chrispus and I honestly only saw you specifically talk about all the debris, shells, muscles etc. that needs to be removed before you start the gelling process. So great job on that. But my concern with using heat as part of the process would remove mineral properties from the gel. Can you speak on this pertaining to heating and its affect on consistency and mineral content? How about a double boiler method? Thanks !

[@ampsa84]

Heating the sea moss release more nutrients as it breaks up the complex structures. Minerals are not heat sensitive so they do not destroy by heat. This is why you can melt gold over and over and it’s still gold. What actually destroys the mineral is blending, as the oxygen and water causes oxidation. Oxidation is what destroys mineral, you can observe this with rusting .

[@alexscrubs1]

Thank you for going through this in detail I am just learning about this and this video was super helpful

[@nakeshawilliams7715]

Thank you

[@RemixKingzMusic]

Nice video, thank you for this. If you are growing plants you can feed them that water instead of throwing it down the train. Also I wouldn't recommend boiling, it removes nutrients.

[@VeganWithCurves]

Yes u can. U can even use the water to blend your gel if you desire. Amd from my current understanding, it will not kill all nutrients not all nutrients are heat sensitive and some are actually released when in heat😊

[@thomasashcraft9735]

The water soluble vitamins/nutrients are only lost if you dispose of the water you boiled it in. Use the water when you blend.

[@ampsa84]

Soaking any seaweed for that long then replace the water will remove a lot of the nutrients and minerals. This is due to the fact the a lot of the minerals and some of the vitamins are water soluble. It’s best to wash quickly then boil or soak and blend in the water it was soaked in.

[@kiwifeijoa]

Great video, good to see the wholefood Carrageen Moss used. Showing those comparisons to show what actually happens with the gel at different temperatures, very useful. Just a tip, the blog post says carrageenan, however it's carrageen, am sure that's easily fixed. It's named after a coastal place in Ireland, Carragheen. Great info here. Slan! :-)

Question- I have both chondrus crispus and gracilaria. The chondrus is sooooo fishy, it’s almost hard to down. What are you doing to help with the strong taste. No one talks about how different the taste is from gracilaria. Literally it’s night and day. You mention limes, but are limes taking the taste away for you? I’m pretty shocked by how hard it is to eat it. Is there any other way to mask it?Thank you!!!

[@VeganWithCurves]

I don't so anything to mask the taste. I accept that seaweed is seaweed lol. But you can cook it longer to break those components. Only prepare a little at a time and dilute it the down with more water. That night help.

WHO has evaluated that about half of the anemia cases in the world is caused due to the deficiency of iron. Provides energy Iron assists to transport oxygen to the cells. It also assists the metabolic enzyme process that is essential to absorb nutrients and digest proteins from the food. Due to this iron deficiency leads to the exhaustion, sluggish symptoms and problem in being active. The deficiency results to mood changes, low concentration and problem in the muscle coordination. Iron is required for the movement of muscles as it assist in the oxygen storage in the muscles that helps to strengthen and movement. Cognitive health Iron is essential to support the functions of brain as it supplies oxygen to the brain. About 20% of the oxygen is used by the brain. The deficiency of iron leads to mental or memory problems. In the children and infants, the iron deficiency can result to cognitive abnormalities and psychomotor as well as problem in learning.
