Agar Agar Flakes

Agar Agar (Kanten) is a vegetarian gelling agent from red seaweed used
for over 1000 years. The seaweeds are boiled, pressed into a gel and then
dried into flakes. Great for desserts, baked goods fillings, puddings,
pies, parfaits, etc. Flakes dissolve in hot liquids and thicken as they
cool to room temperature or below.

Use to thicken fruit juices with fruit, pudding, pie fillings, and vegetable
aspics. No taste or color.

INGREDIENTS: Seaweed (Gelidium and Gracilaria).
