Description
Agar-Agar Red is a binder such as gelatin, only with the difference that this is 100% vegetarian
Agar-agar (E406) is a binder that is naturally present in the cell wall of certain types of red algae. By first drying this seaweed and then cooking for a few hours, the binder dissolves in the cooking water. If you allow this cooking liquid to cool off, it will turn into a jelly. This is dried and then the Agar Agar remains as we know it. Dissolved in hot water and then cooled down using agar as a substitute for gelatin. What is the big difference between agar and gelatin? Gelatine is extracted from bones and is therefore not suitable for everyone, while agar-agar is 100% vegetarian. The binding force is twice as large as that of gelatin and agar gel is also less sensitive to changes in acidity.
To use:
It can be used as a binder in soup, or as a vegetarian substitute for gelatine. It can also be used as a laxative.
Ingredients: agar 99,99%, color E129
