Encapsulated Citric Acid - Gluten-Free Vegan - 400g/14oz

Encapsulated citric acid, a acidulant encapsulated with hydrogenated vegetable oil, is known for its ability to melt when cooked. This unique characteristic adds a tangy flavor often associated with sausages and snacks by reducing the pH level. In addition to enhancing flavor, encapsulated citric acid can also improve shelf stability as it functions as a nitrite accelerator.

When using encapsulated citric acid, it is recommended to add 12 ounces per 100lbs of meat in order to achieve a target pH of approximately 4.9. It's important to note that the performance of encapsulated citric acid may vary depending on the fat content of the meat and the impact of other seasonings used.

Encapsulated citric acid is plant-based, gluten-free, and keto-friendly, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary preferences. Its versatility makes it perfect for applications in Molecular Gastronomy and Modernist Cooking.

In conclusion, encapsulated citric acid encapsulated with hydrogenated vegetable oil offers a convenient and effective way to enhance both the flavor and shelf stability of various food products.
