Agar is effective even in very small quantities and allows a wide range of preparations: jams, savory or fruity jellies, desserts and much more.

Agar allows the production of both cold and warm jellies. Obtained from red algae.

 

Properties & application notes:
 

  • Vegetarian/vegan gelatin substitute, gluten free
  • Finely ground powder, tasteless
  • Gels very quickly; once gelled, the preparation can withstand temperatures of up to 80 °C.
  • In combination with ingredients with a high acid content, agar loses its gelling power
  • Stir agar into cold liquid and heat until just beginning to boil.
  • Dosage for soft jellies: 2-4 g/l, dosage for firm jellies: 
    5-10g/L
