Appearance
White or yellow-brown powder
Description
For meat, it functions as a binder. In condiments, it improves the stability and appearance of salad dressings, barbecue sauces, relishes, ketchups and others. It is also used in dry soups, instant oatmeal, sweet desserts, canned fish in sauce, frozen food items, and animal feed. In canned soup, it is used as a thickener and stabilizer.
Function
In baked goods, it increases dough yield, gives greater resiliency, and improves texture and shelf life; in pastry fillings, it prevents "weeping" (syneresis) of the water in the filling, keeping the pastry crust crisp. It is primarily used in hypoallergenic recipes that use different types of whole-grain flours. In dairy products, it thickens milk, yogurt, kefir, and liquid cheese products, and helps maintain homogeneity and texture of ice creams and sherbets. It is used for similar purposes in plant milks.
