Living Jin Agar-Agar Powder is a vegan gelatin, made with 100% natural seaweed. Agar-agar has no color, odor, or taste, making it versatile for cooking. It is great for making vegan cheese and a wide variety of vegan desserts. Agar-agar gives you the freedom to tweak recipes to suit your diet by allowing you to thicken food without animal ingredients, sugar, or starch. Unlike animal-gelatin desserts, agar-agar desserts are vegan-friendly, set fast, and stay firm outside of the refrigerator. Agar-agar also outperforms animal gelatin in setting acidic and alcoholic liquids.
