{"product_id":"louis-francois-sodium-alginate-hv","title":"LOUIS FRANCOIS Sodium Alginate HV","description":"\u003cp\u003eLouis Francois Sodium Alginate HV is a natural gelling and texturizing agent derived from brown seaweed. It is best known for direct and reverse spherification, where it reacts with calcium to form a gel, but it can also be used with other hydrocolloids in frozen desserts and whipped preparations. It dissolves cold, remains stable through freezing and thermal processing, and can be used in acidic or alcohol-containing formulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect and reverse spherification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIce cream and sorbet stabilizing systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWhipped cream and aerated preparations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFormulations requiring moisture retention and reduced syneresis\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAcidic or alcohol-containing preparations where alginate functionality is required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUse\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSodium Alginate HV dissolves in cold liquid and gels in the presence of calcium. For direct spherification, disperse the alginate into the preparation being spherified, then portion it into a calcium bath. For reverse spherification, prepare an alginate bath in water and introduce a calcium-containing filling into the bath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended Dosage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpherification: 0.5–1%\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWhipped cream: 0.2–0.4%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjust according to the formulation, viscosity and desired gel strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eObservations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNatural hydrocolloid derived from brown seaweed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCold soluble\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGels in the presence of calcium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFreeze stable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat stable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps control syneresis\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCan be used in acidic and alcohol-containing matrices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Louis Francois","offers":[{"title":"50g","offer_id":67681795113204,"sku":null,"price":19.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":67681795145972,"sku":"142A-1","price":143.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1260\/2953\/files\/LOUISFRANCOISSodiumAlginateHV_1kg1.jpg?v=1790919056","url":"https:\/\/supplies.gusta.ca\/products\/louis-francois-sodium-alginate-hv","provider":"Gusta Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
