## Description

Description 100% Pure Food Grade Calcium Chloride (e509) for use in spherification and molecular gastronomy. Calcium Chloride (E509) is a salt of calcium and chlorine. It is used as a sequestrant and firming agent. Calcium chloride is one of the primary ingredients in direct spherification. It is used in the setting bath to activate the sodium alginate. Due to it's extremely salty taste, it should not be used in reverse spherification. Add a small amount of calcium chloride to each jar of pickles or sauerkraut. Calcium chloride is designated generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Because of its hygroscopic nature, anhydrous calcium chloride must be kept in tightly-sealed air-tight containers.

Review: Fancy "smartwater" for pennies - I use this with other salts to make "smartwater" for my husband. Why pay over $30.00 a month to make the same thing for less than $1.00 a month? This plus magnesium salt (plain Epsom salt,) fancy regular salt, and Morton's salt substitute (potassium salt) are all it takes. A tiny pinch of each, in 20 ounces of water, and it's done. If that sounds like it would take too long, mix the last three, put in an air tight container, and use a big pinch of the mix plus one tiny pinch of this calcium chloride The Calcium chloride has to be kept separate and dry because it will absorb water and turn gooey.
Review: Buen producto.
