Spirulina (powder)
Spirulina is a blue-green algae, dried and ground into a fine powder, with a strong, earthy, slightly fishy or grassy flavour and a deep blue-green colour. It is stirred into smoothies, juices, and energy balls as a nutrient-dense additive rather than used as a primary flavouring ingredient. Its intense flavour means it is generally used in small quantities.
As a fine powder, this ingredient packs densely into a cup with very little trapped air.
