Also known as kanten, this versatile ingredient is often used in place of gelatin powder in Japan. - Its high gelling properties produce a thick, firm texture, and it sets quickly at room temperature. It is commonly used to make vegan gelatin. It also can be substituted for cornstarch as a thickener, so it’s a great addition to a variety of dishes, from soups and sauces to noodles to desserts. In addition, agar agar provides healthy dietary fiber. - How to Use Agar Agar Powder: Agar agar is more potent than gelatin and sets to a firmer, gummier texture. One teaspoon of agar agar provides the same thickening power as 2-3 teaspoons of gelatin, so keep this in mind if you’re making a substitution to a recipe that calls for regular gelatin. If you’re making a molded recipe like a gelatin or panna cotta, be sure to grease the mold before adding your agar agar mixture. - Try adding it to fruit syrups for homemade gummy candy, or use it to make your own vegan cheese. - Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. We do not recommend refrigerating or freezing agar agar powder. - Allergens: Packaged in a facility that processes dairy, soy, peanuts, and wheat products. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008UQLVFO | | Best Sellers Rank | #72,546 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #167 in Gelatins | | Brand | Hoosier Hill Farm | | Brand Name | Hoosier Hill Farm | | Coin Variety 1 | Agar Agar | | Cuisine | Japanese cuisine | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 871 Reviews | | Diet Type | Vegan, Vegetarian | | Flavor | Unflavored | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Package Weight | 0.52 Kilograms | | Item Type Name | Powder | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Hoosier Hill Farm | | Material Feature | Vegan | | Material Features | Vegan | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Part Number | HHF34 | | Size | 16 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Specialty | Vegan | | UPC | 853881004069 | | Unit Count | 16 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hoosier Hill Farm - **Item Weight:** 1 Pounds - **Material Feature:** Vegan - **Specialty:** Vegan - **Unit Count:** 16 Ounce ## Images ![Hoosier Hill Farm Agar Agar Powder, 1LB (Pack of 1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51pEZKUje2L.jpg) ![Hoosier Hill Farm Agar Agar Powder, 1LB (Pack of 1) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51U0JxAf9pL.jpg) ![Hoosier Hill Farm Agar Agar Powder, 1LB (Pack of 1) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ZJ0-Sto-L.jpg) ![Hoosier Hill Farm Agar Agar Powder, 1LB (Pack of 1) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HzwBWoojL.jpg) ![Hoosier Hill Farm Agar Agar Powder, 1LB (Pack of 1) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81lB3IGRdTL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is your agar agar powder all natural?** A: Yes.
