Gelling agent Agar agar - FORMAT PRO 1kg

Agar agar is a polysaccharide extracted from various types of red algae (Rhodophyceae), mainly Gelidium and Gracilaria. Agar (E-406) is standardized by the addition of sugars (dextrose or maltodextrin). It gels by itself without adding any substances. Agar Agar, due to its neutral taste, is known to be used as a gelling agent and vegetable stabilizer. It thus replaces animal gelatin in culinary preparations (jelly, jam, flan, sorbets, etc.). It can also be used for dental impressions, culture media in microbiology, etc. Bien refermer le sachet après utilisation.
