AGAR-AGAR BIO 100G NATURGREEN Agar-agar is a substance extracted from red algae and acts as gelatin, absorbing 200 to 300 times its weight in water. This natural powdered gelatin can be used as a substitute for animal gelatin in cooking by diluting the necessary amount in hot liquid, not exceeding 65ºC, so that it does not melt and lose its gelling power. It is a 100% natural vegetable gelatin, with a gelling action up to eight times greater than animal gelatins. - Organic - Vegan - Gluten-free - Lactose-free Ingredients: Agar-agar algae* From Organic Agriculture Nutritional information: - Energy value (720 kJ / 172 kcal) - Fat (0.1 g) - Saturated (0.0 g) - Carbohydrates (0.40 g) - Sugars (0.00 g) - Dietary fiber (86.00 g) - Proteins (0.10 g) - Salt (1.25 g) Usage: Agar agar is used as a substitute for animal gelatin in desserts, such as cakes, compotes, jams, flans, custards, creams, sorbets, etc.
