Raw DIY Seamoss: How to Make Sea Moss Gel at home!
Follow these simple steps to turn raw sea moss into a nutrient-rich gel at home.
Step 1: Rinse
For this tutorial, we will use 14g of seamoss which is the equivalent to a 375ml jar of seamoss gel.
- Measure out 14g of dried sea moss.
Rinse thoroughly twice using fresh, clean water to remove any sand, salt, or ocean residue.
Step 2: Soak
- Place the rinsed sea moss in a clean bowl.
- Refill with spring or filtered water (avoid tap water).
- Squeeze in the juice of 1 fresh lime to help reduce the oceanic smell.
- Let the sea moss soak at room temperature for 12 to 24 hours in a dark cool place.
- After soaking, the sea moss should expand to about 3 times its original size.
Step 3: Blend
- Transfer the soaked sea moss to a blender.
- Add 1.5 to 2 cups of fresh spring or Alkaline water. Ensure it’s just enough to cover the moss.
- Blend on high for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Optional: Add more water for a thinner consistency.
Step 4: Store
- Pour the sea moss gel into a clean, airtight 375ml jar.
Store in the top shelf of your refrigerator and use within 4 weeks.
- If you want to extend the shelf life, you can pour your gel into freezer cubes. Frozen seamoss will last for up to 4 months.
Please Note:
- Adding fresh fruit may reduce the shelf life to about 2 weeks.
Always store in the fridge and use a clean spoon each time
- We recommend 2 table spoons a day. Always use a clean spoon after each spoon full.
