Agar agar powder vegan gelatine

Agar-agar (E406) is tasteless and a very good gelling agent that is independent of the surrounding medium. A concentration of just 1%, dissolved in hot water, is enough to create an elastic gel that is sufficiently mechanically stable but not too firm, with a very thin layer of aqueous liquid on the surface. Half a teaspoon is therefore about as effective as four sheets of gelatine.

Agar is used (in the EU as food additive number E 406) as a thickening agent, e.g. in soups, for confectionery and ice cream. In the household, it can be used as a vegan substitute for gelatine. Agar-Agar is ideal for thickening sauces, for preparing pâtés and creams, as well as for Asian dishes. For 1/2 liter of sauce/soup or 500 g of fruit, you only need about one level teaspoon.
