Great value product whenever you need good quality agar agar.
5 Stars
Great value product whenever you need good quality agar agar.
I actually didn't buy this product because I was vegetarian. I love meat and have no problem using gelatin for most of my jelly-like desserts. However, some of the recipes I wanted to try out needed agar agar rather than gelatin because it required the gelling ingredient to be boiled in a sugar syrup; I would not have been able to substitute gelatin in this case, as it loses all its gelling abilities once it boils.I have used this agar agar for numerous recipes and am very happy with my purchase. Not sure what strength this product is, but the end texture of my foods has never left me feeling as if it was too weak. Great price for the amount of agar agar you are getting. It says on the bottle there are 38 servings of 1/2 tsp of agar agar, which would also mean there are 19 servings of 1 tsp of agar agar. I bought this item in March 2021, and the expiration date/best-by-date is 01/2024. Not sure how often they change their product stash, but for me this means that my agar agar would last 4 years. That might be important to some of you who might not use it that often. I know I personally purchased this smaller batch (2 oz) rather than most of the other agar agar powders on Amazon were selling (4 oz) because I was afraid I would end up wasting the product if I didn't use it frequently.There is also no smell coming off it (unlike gelatin, which has a slight smell) and it is just as colorless as gelatin, so it will not affect the end color of your foods. Overall highly recommend this product if needing to use agar agar in recipes.
