BAKE IT RIGHT, BY ADDING A RIGHT HYDROCOLLOID!
SARDA provides food grade gums and hydrocolloids of premium and unparalleled quality in the industry.
Bread
The enhancements associated to the use of hydrocolloids in bread
making has an improving effect on all the parameters tested such as
specific volume index, width and height ratio, and crumb hardness;
along with good sensory properties for visual appearance, aroma,
flavour, crunchiness and overall acceptability of the bread.
Gluten Free
Various gluten-free formulations have applied gums or hydrocolloids to mimic the viscoelastic properties of gluten for better crumb structure, firmness and cohesiveness. Xanthan, guar, k-carrageenan, and the water-soluble polysaccharides like psyllium husk powder providing a range of functional properties.
Pie Filling
Hydrocolloids stabilizes emulsions, such as bakery fillings containing suspended fruits pie fillings and table jellies. Hydrocolloids are among the most versatile and utilized ingredients available in food and beverage industry.
They present a unique opportunity to improve texture and flavor and imparts high viscosity at low concentrations and enables pastes and creams to hold their shape at best.
Tortilla
Hydrocolloids can be added in tortilla formulations to extend the product's shelf life and improve texture while increasing its nutritional content.
For corn and flour tortilla manufacturers and developers, the use of guar gum is important to managing moisture because flour tortillas are so thin, they can dry out easily and lose their textural properties.
Food hydrocolloids are high-molecular weight water soluble biopolymers used as functional ingredients in the food industry. In the baked goods, hydrocolloids have been used for reducing the staling and for improving the quality of the fresh products. They minimize the negative effects of the freezing on bakery products.
Hydrocolloids are used for their thickening, gelation, emulsifying and steadiness properties. They aim at providing increased bread volume, better texture, prolong freshness of bakery products and lower physical damage caused by ice particles during storage. Various gluten-free formulations have applied them to mimic the viscoelastic properties of gluten.
- For improving the characteristics of bakery products, SARDA offers three grades of guar gum namely
- Guarsar 501 (High viscosity, fast hydrating fine mesh)
- Guarsar 351 (medium high viscosity fine mesh)
- Guarsar F01 (Low viscosity, perhydrates Guar and odourless)
- Sargol 100/99
- Sargol 100/98
