What is it?

Gelatin is a kind of protein obtained by partial hydrolysis and thermal denaturation of collagen in animal skin, bone and other connective tissues. It is the most widely used glue product. It contains 18 kinds of amino acids needed by human body. Gelatin has a wide range of applications, which edible and medicinal products account for the largest proportion.

How to use it?

Gelatin as thickener, modifier and clarifier, it is widely used in dairy products, frozen food, meat products, candy, beverage, pastry and other foods. In addition, as a natural biopolymer, it has many advantages, such as biodegradability, good biocompatibility, gelation and low cost. It is widely used in medicine as a traditional pharmaceutical excipient. It is used to make soft capsules and hard capsules.

Where can we see gelatin in our daily life?

From yogurt to all kinds of jelly, adding gelatin can improve the taste. For example, when we fry vegetables, we have more soup. Add some starch to thicken the soup, and the soup will become thick and not easy to flow. Another example is the drinks we usually drink, such as jam, granular food, all kinds of canned food, soft drinks and margarine. The addition of gelatin can make the ice crystals generated in the freezing process of food fine and contain a large number of tiny bubbles, making its structure fine and uniform, taste smooth and appearance neat.
