RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
- medium-sized saucepan
- whisk
- a bowl which the medium saucepan fits into
- two medium-sized bowls
- two fine mesh strainers
- sealable container (oil bottle)
- ice cubes
Ingredients
Units Scale
- 1 tsp blue spirulina powder
- 250 milliliters oil sunflower oil
Instructions
- Put the blue spirulina powder into the pot as well as the oil.
- Heat it over medium heat to a temperature of about 100°C (212°F), and maintain this temperature for the next 5 minutes. Stir occasionally, making sure the temperature remains steady and nothing gets burned.
- Prepare a bowl large enough to fit a medium-sized pot, and fill it with cold water and a handful of ice cubes. Also, hang a fine mesh strainer over one medium-sized bowl.
- Now, place the pot in the ice water and stir to cool the oil quickly. Pour the oil into the prepared fine mesh strainer to catch the coarse particles.
- Then, pour the oil into the second sieve, which is equipped with a coffee filter, to catch the remaining finer particles.
- Once all the oil has passed through the coffee filter, transfer the collected amount of oil into a sealable container or directly into an oil bottle.
