what is irish moss gel
Irish Moss Gel (paste). Irish Moss is unprocessed, raw seaweed, which can be used as a gelling agent without cooking. Itâs an amazing thickener and emulsifier (able to bind fat and water-based ingredients) and can help cut down on the quantity of nuts needed in many recipes. Store the gel in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 weeks (the cautious approach Iâve had it last way longer). 2  To use in a recipe, use 1-5 Tbsp of Irish moss gel to 1 cup of product. 3  Quantity depends on the recipe you are making and the thickness desired.
