How it works

Agar-Agar is a natural polysaccharide extracted from the cell walls of red seaweed. It has a unique binding power that is activated by heating. When the powder is dissolved in warm liquid and boiled briefly, it forms a firm, jelly-like structure upon cooling. Because it is odourless and tasteless, it does not affect the flavour of your dishes, while it does ensure a perfect texture at room temperature.
