Irish moss, scientifically known as Chondrus crispus, is a type of red algae that primarily grows along the rocky shores of the Atlantic Ocean, particularly around Ireland and the northeastern coast of North America. It belongs to the family Gigartinaceae and is commonly found in tidal pools and coastal waters. Traditionally, Irish moss has been used in herbal remedies, particularly as a soothing agent for respiratory issues and digestive support, often prepared as a gel or in teas. It has a mild, slightly briny flavor, which makes it a versatile ingredient in culinary applications, including soups, desserts, and as a thickening agent. Historically, Irish moss has been valued for its rich nutrient profile, including vitamins and minerals, and it was used as a food source during times of scarcity, particularly among coastal communities.*
