👉 The Mauritian fluid, also known as the Mauritian seaweed or sea lettuce (Ulva lactuca var. morotiana), is a type of large, flat, green seaweed native to the Indian Ocean, particularly around Mauritius. This marine plant is characterized by its rapid growth and ability to thrive in shallow coastal waters, forming extensive underwater meadows. The Mauritian fluid is valued not only for its ecological significance, as it provides habitat and food for various marine species, but also for its culinary uses in local cuisine. It is often consumed fresh or dried and is appreciated for its mild, slightly sweet flavor. Its abundance and versatility have made it a popular ingredient in both traditional and modern Mauritian dishes.
