Products description
Agar Agar
is a plant-based gelling agent derived from red algae. It has a transparent, glossy texture and is typically tasteless. Agar Agar is often used as an alternative to animal-based gelatin products and is a popular ingredient in vegan and vegetarian cuisine.
Agar Agar is used in the food industry as a thickener, gelling agent, and stabilizer in a variety of foods such as desserts, jams, jellies, puddings, and candies. It also has applications in microbiology and is used as a culture medium for bacteria and fungi.
Agar Agar is sold in powder and needs to be soaked in liquid before use. It is then boiled until fully dissolved and can be added to the desired liquid to achieve a gel-like consistency.
Compared to animal-based gelling agents, Agar Agar is a healthier option as it is fat-free, low in calories, and a natural source of fiber.
