Puramate Agar Agar is a pure, vegetable-based gelling agent that can be used as an alternative to animal gelatin. It is ideal for creating delicious fruit spreads, pie fillings, vegetable aspics, and other solid foods. This agar powder is particularly useful for baking, making vegan cheese, jellies, custards, and marshmallows, providing a cholesterol-free and chemical-free option. It is suitable for both sweet and savoury dishes that require a gelling agent, such as jellies, jams, desserts, and aspics. The gelling capacity depends on the acidity of the preparation, with acidic recipes requiring a bit more agar-agar. However, it should not be combined with chocolate or kiwi, as they can neutralise the gelling effect.
