How to make Jamaica Irish Moss

 

Good evening readers and coffee indulgers we hope you’re ready for another great blog today as we’ve got a very major MF recipe lined up for you, the Jamaican Irish Moss Drink. Irish Moss has been known as a love potion for ages due to its ability to add more potency to the male ingredient for baby-making.  This delightful drink made with milk, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. It is super tasty, vegan, and is even gluten-free! It has been believed that this wonderful concoction originated from Irish immigrants who went to Jamaica between the 19th and 20th century. The drink has a naturally thick (and to some gluey) texture that provides a very filling and nutritious feeling when consumed. This is due to an important ingredient named ‘carrageenan’ which naturally thickens substances and is often used in yoghurts and cottage cheese. Irish Moss has many adaptations however its originally often enjoyed and endorsed by many athletes due to its high mineral and protein content.

-          ¾ cup of natural honey or  1 can of sweetened condensed milk

-          ¾  pound of sugar

-          5 oz of linseed

-          3 tablespoons of vanilla extract

-          5 litres of water

-          2 tablespoons of powdered MF Nutmeg

-      2 tablespoons of powdered MF Cinnamon 


Method:

1.       Wash the MF Sea Moss to remove sand and other matter.

2.       Place the MF Sea Moss in water overnight.

3.       Place 5 litres of water in a pot and bring to a boil

4.       Add moss, gum arabic, isinglass, and linseed.

5.       Cook for ¾ hour until all the ingredients, with the exception of the MF Sea Moss, has dissolved.

6.       Pour the liquid into a strainer into another container. Throw away the boiled Irish Moss.

  Good evening MF Blog readers, we hope you all are staying active during this cold Christmas season. As the year draws to a close, MF Products still have a variety of tasty recipes to broadcast and this week we will be looking at how we can use our MF Soursop to make some delightful treats. Today we will be making our very own MF Soursop smoothie with bananas and almonds. We chose bananas due it’s alpha and beta carotene content when consumed by the body, this then turns in vitamin A. Bananas are also a good source of potassium and due to its low water content, it contains more calories and is more filling.

Benefits of pimento (also known as allspice).

Before we get into the benefits of pimento, at MF Products UK we believe we must look at a foods history first and learn about its origin. So, without further ado let’s look into pimento which is also known as allspice. The pimento tree is indigenous to the Caribbean Islands. It was found growing in Jamaica by early Spanish explorers who were quite impressed with its tantalising taste and aroma of the berries and the leaves. Pimento trees were then later discovered in Cuba and were presumed to have been taken there by migrant birds who had eaten the berries. They have also been found in Mexico, but it is Jamaica that has the longest history, having been in continuous production since the tree was identified in about the year 1509. The name Pimento originated from the Spanish word "pimienta" which meant ‘peppercorn’. To most English-speaking people the tree is called "pimento" and the berries "allspice". The name allspice originated from the widespread n...
