- Gellan gum is a type of food additive that is commonly used in culinary applications as a thickening agent, stabilizer, and gelling agent. Gellan Gum is similar to guar gum, carrageenan, agar agar and xanthan gum. It is a popular plant based substitute for gelatin. Here are some common culinary uses of gellan gum:
- Dairy products: Gellan gum is commonly used in dairy products such as yogurt, cream cheese, and ice cream to improve texture, prevent syneresis (separation of liquid), and stabilize the product.
- Plant-based milk alternatives: Gellan gum is often used in plant-based milk alternatives such as almond milk, soy milk, and oat milk to improve texture and prevent separation.
- Jellies and desserts: Gellan gum is used to create jellies and desserts such as fruit gels, panna cotta, and custards. It provides a firm, smooth texture and helps to maintain the shape of the dessert.
- Sauces and dressings: Gellan gum is used in sauces and dressings to improve texture and prevent separation. It is often used in low-fat or reduced-calorie dressings to provide a creamy texture without the added fat.
- Beverages: Gellan gum is used in beverages such as sports drinks and fruit juices to improve texture and prevent settling. It can also be used to create suspension of particles or emulsification of fats in certain beverages.
