Details
Create delicious jellied products with no animal ingredients by using this Sosa vegetable gelling agent! Unlike conventional gelatin, which is typically derived from beef or pork, this plant-based gelling agent is made from a blend of carrageenan and locust bean gum, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians. It gels at 140 degrees Fahrenheit, making it a great replacement for conventional gelatin in products like fruit jellies, false jelly spheres, marmalades and preserves, and jelly toppings. This flavorless, odorless powder won't affect the taste of your culinary creations and its high transparency makes it a great choice when clarity and appearance are important. With a higher elasticity than agar agar, it's also a great option for applications where the shape of your creations is importation. This gelling agent is even suitable for use in liquids with high alcohol levels!
To use this gelling agent, dissolve it in cold liquid, then heat to 150 degrees Fahrenheit. This vegetable gelling agent is suitable for use with any liquid with a water content over 80% and gellifies quickly for fast preparation. This gelling agent is thermoreversible, meaning the gel liquefies when heated above its melting point but regains a jelly-like consistency when cooled again. This allows you the flexibility to reheat your creations and adjust the amount of gelling agent as necessary to ensure a proper set or to prepare large batches of glaze that can be chilled between uses and reheated without affecting the integrity of the end result. This vegetable gelling agent cannot be frozen. This product is packaged in a resealable 1.1 lb. container that will keep your busy establishment in good supply of this versatile ingredient.
