Can you please tell me what i can do with this goo/gunk?

Migrated topic.
So i did a sloppy manske salt extraction with 14 grams syrian rue, none of it really went as planned (only 2 boils at 15 minutes each, only freezed for hour and a half) and after freezing i dumped out the water and this sludgy stuff along with some crispy clear-ish stuff was at the bottom (a thin layer of crispy clear stuff was on top of the water as well (precipitate? I'm a noob at chemistry and failed it) ) but the stuff stuck to the bottom of the glass seemed more orange-y. Here is a pic of the stuff i collected. I want to know what i can do with it (if anything at all)? It has a really strong vinegar smell...


sorry for bad quality, taken from phone.

read this:


you could do redissolve in hot water, filter to remove impurities and precipitate again (eeither as salt like manske or as freebase by adding sodium carbonate). Basically follow the guide starting on step 12. Every time you redissolve, filter and reprecipitate (either as salt or freebase), it will get cleaner.

hope it helps
 
Thanks for the link. But do you guys think what i have looks alright? i really was running low on time so i poured out the water leaving the precipitate and the gooey looking stuff.
Edit: Nevermind i just decided to throw it out. Didn't wanna waste my time when i can just crush the seeds and eat em.
