What ratio should I use for thickening?

Start with about 0.2–1% sodium alginate by weight, depending on the desired thickness. Add gradually while blending to reduce clumping and allow time for full hydration.

Do I need calcium lactate too?

Calcium lactate is typically used with sodium alginate for spherification, where calcium helps form the gel membrane around spheres or pearls.

Is this suitable for ice cream?

Yes. Sodium alginate can be used as a stabilizer and thickener in ice cream and frozen desserts, helping improve texture and consistency when used at an appropriate ratio.

Can it be used for vegan recipes?

Yes. Sodium alginate is derived from brown seaweed and is suitable for vegan and plant-based recipes. It can provide thickening, stabilization and gelling without animal-based gelatin.

What dishes is this typically used for?

Sodium alginate is commonly used for molecular gastronomy, fruit pearls, spheres, sauces, dressings, ice cream, desserts and other foods requiring thickening, stabilization or texture modification.
