Popweed, Bladders and Healthy bellies!
Bladder wrack or popweed (Fucus vesiculosus) - the seaweed of my childhood - is a common, edible seaweed with air bladders that can be popped like bubble wrap! It also has amazing health benefits including the ability to inhibit a common gut bacteria.
Here I share where to find it, how to identify it, common mistakes, health benefits and why it is good for our guts. How to harvest it, how it reproduces and easy and safe ways to incorporate it into your diet.
Bladder wrack is one of 16 seaweeds in my pocket seaweed book, along with two step-by-step recipes for it, and I regularly teach it on my seaweed foraging courses.
