Agar-Agar E406
Agar-agar E406 is extracted from a red algae and has a strong gelling power. It is tasteless and odorless, making it a perfect ingredient for your culinary preparations. Generally, agar-agar is used as a substitute for animal gelatin.
To use it, simply bring your preparation to a boil, add agar-agar (about 4 g per liter of preparation) and mix well for about 3 minutes. Then, let the preparation cool. The gel will form once it has cooled.
To obtain a gelled texture, it is recommended to add between 0.2% and 1.5% agar-agar to your mixture. Note that agar-agar is much more powerful than gelatin: one sheet of gelatin, equivalent to 2 g of powdered gelatin, is equivalent to only 0.6 g of agar-agar.
The gelling strength of this agar-agar is estimated between 700 and 1000 g/cm², according to the supplier's information.
Chef's Tip: To properly measure agar-agar, using a precision electronic scale is recommended.
Characteristics:
- Net weight: 50 g
- Storage: up to 18 months in an airtight packaging, away from light and moisture
- Non-GMO
- Absence of raw materials or derivatives of animal origin
This agar-agar will be a valuable ally in your kitchen to make gelled dishes and successfully complete your recipes. Feel free to experiment with this natural and plant-based ingredient to bring a touch of creativity to your culinary preparations.
