Product description

AGAR AGAR POWDER Agar Agar is a vegetarian gelatin substitute produced from a variety of seaweed vegetation. It is sold in health food stores in both flake and powder varieties, and can be used in a variety of dairy-free and vegan recipes as a stabilizing and thickening agent for custards,puddings, sauces and even vegetarian marshmallows. Agar forms a gel at 88 F and does not melt below 136F. It is unflavored and is rich in iodine and trace minerals. Agar's setting properties are stronger than unflavored gelatin and will set at room temperature after an hour. It is a high protein food and should be refrigerated for storage. Agar's gelling ability is affected by high acidity. More acidic foods like strawberries and citrus may require a higher agar to liquid ratio. Some foods will prevent gelling. Fresh kiwi is too acidic and pineapple, fresh figs, paw paws, papaya, mango and peaches contain enzymes, which break down the gelling ability of the agar. Cooked fruit seems to lose this effect. Chocolate and spinach also prohibit gelling. The basic Agar Gel recipe is 2 teaspoons of powder to 2 cups of liquid. Soak the agar in the liquid for about 10-15 min. Bring to boil and simmer stirring until the agar completely dissolves (about 5 minutes). If you are unsure of the setting ability of the gel, you can test it by placing a small amount of the cooked gel on a cold saucer. It should set within 20-30 seconds. If not add more agar and re-cook. If it is too firm, add more liquid and repeat cooking steps. The beauty of agar is that it can be boiled and re-melted if necessary. Agar can also be used as a stabilizer, keeping whipped cream toppings firm and preventing separation. Add 2 T confectioner sugar and 1 t agar powder to 1 cup of whipping cream that is almost whipped. Finish whipping until stiff peaks form. | | 100% Pure Agar Agar E406 Dietary Information: Suitable for Vegan's & Vegetarian's, Non GMO, Gluten Free, Halal friendly, Kosher friendly. |
