Citric acid is an organic compound usually encountered as a white solid. It occurs naturally in citrus fruits.
Because it is one of the stronger edible acids, the dominant use of citric acid is as a flavoring and preservative in food and beverages, especially soft drinks and candies and it is denoted by E number E330.
Citric acid can be added to ice cream as an emulsifying agent to keep fats from separating, to caramel to prevent sucrose crystallization, or in recipes in place of fresh lemon juice. Citric acid is used with sodium bicarbonate in a wide range of effervescent formulae, both for ingestion (e.g., powders and tablets) and for personal care (e.g., bath salts, bath bombs, and cleaning of grease).
Citric acid sold in a dry powdered form is commonly sold in markets and groceries as “sour salt”, due to its physical resemblance to table salt. It has use in culinary applications, as an alternative to vinegar or lemon juice, where a pure acid is needed. Citric acid can be used in food coloring to balance the pH level of a normally basic dye…
Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide that is used as a food ingredient.It is produced from vegetable starch by partial hydrolysis and is usually found as a white hygroscopic spray-dried powder.
Maltodextrin is easily digestible, being absorbed as rapidly as glucose and may be either moderately sweet or almost flavorless. It can be found as an ingredient in a variety of processed foods.
Maltodextrin is used to improve the mouthfeel of food and beverage products. It is also used in some snacks such as potato chips and jerky. It is used in “light” peanut butter to reduce the fat content but maintain the texture.
Maltodextrin is also sometimes taken as a dietary supplement by athletes, in powder form, gel packets, or energy drinks.
Maltodextrin is used as an inexpensive additive to thicken food products such as infant formula.
It is also used as a filler in sugar substitutes and other products…
Malic acid is a food additive, the main acid in many fruits which include apricots, blackberries, blueberries, cherries, grapes, mirabelles, peaches, pears, plums, and quince and it’s present in lower concentrations in other fruits, such as citrus.
It contributes to the sourness of unripe apples. Sour apples contain high proportions of the acid. It is present in grapes and in most wines in certain measured degree of concentrations. It confers a tart taste to wine; the amount decreases with increasing fruit ripeness.
It is also a component of some artificial vinegar flavors, such as “salt and vinegar” flavored potato chips…
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG), is the sodium salt of glutamic acid. MSG is found naturally in some foods including tomatoes and cheese.
MSG is used in cooking as a flavor enhancer with an umami taste that intensifies the meaty, savory flavor of food, as naturally occurring glutamate does in foods such as stews and meat soups.
MSG balances, blends, and rounds the perception of other tastes. MSG is commonly used and found in stock cubes, soups, ramen, gravy, stews, condiments, savory snacks, etc.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has given MSG its generally recognized as safe (GRAS) designation and it is denoted with the E number, E621 in Europe…
Sodium Hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda comes in different forms as we have it in Flakes, Powder and Liquid.
Caustic Soda is highly soluble in water and readily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the air.
It finds application in many industries as it is used in the manufacture of sodium salts and detergents, pH regulation, and organic synthesis, in the manufacture of pulp and paper, textiles, drinking water, soaps and detergents, as a drain cleaner and many more…
Potassium Sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid. It is a white salt that is very soluble in water (58.2% at 20 °C).
It is primarily used as a food preservative with E number 202.
Potassium sorbate is effective in a variety of applications including food, wine, and personal-care products.
Potassium sorbate is used to inhibit molds and yeasts in many foods, such as cheese, wine, yogurt, dried meats, apple cider, rehydrated fruits, soft drinks and fruit drinks, and baked goods. It is used in the preparation of items such as hotcake syrup and milkshakes served by fast-food restaurants.
In addition, herbal dietary supplement products generally contain potassium sorbate, which acts to prevent mold and microbes and to increase shelf life. It is used in quantities at which no adverse health effects are known, over short periods of time…
