Xanthan Gum

Xanthan gum, say again HuangJiao, han raw rubber, light yellow to white can flow powder, slightly with a bad smell, is a natural polysaccharide and important biological polymer, the cabbage black rot disease wild rapeseed yellow form afterbirth fungus with carbohydrates as the main raw material, the aerobic biological engineering technologies to produce the fermentation. In 1952 by the U.S. department of agriculture's Illinois skin Mr Lille institute of northern separation get cabbage black rot disease yellow form afterbirth fungus, and make broccoli extract into the extracellular supported heteropoly acid soluble sugar and get.
Since the 1996 allowed for since the use of food additives, xanthan gum has been widely accepted, because food industry in low concentrations can provide excellent processing and storage stability. According to China's hygiene standards for use of food additives, xanthan gum can be used for bread, ice cream, dairy products, meat products, jams, jellies, gluten free baked goods, specific use see chart.
Xanthan gum in most water base within the system is completely dissolved, but because it is strong, if directly to the water hydrophile and stir not fully, the outer absorbing water expanding into micelle, thus preventing water into the innermost layer, and then the effects of the play, so must pay attention to the correct use of:
Take a xanthan gum or above with ten copies of other dry raw materials, such as the sugar in food production, gourmet powder, salt, and then slowly when the content such as the water poured out on mixing, immerse about two hours, continue to stir until completely dissolved.
