Classification of food bulking agents

Introduction: there are many kinds of food bulking agents, and they are also different in use Here is an introduction to the classification of food bulking agents The kind of chemical bulking agent is made up of edible chemicals The classification of food bulking agent can be divided into single bulking agent and compound bulking agent The commonly used single bulking agents are NaHCO3 and NH4HCO3 Both are basic compounds CO2 and other gases are produced by thermal decomposition NH4HCO3 is unstable to temperature and decomposes at baking temperature Na2CO3, the residue of NaHCO3 decomposition, will react with oil and fat at high temperature to produce saponification reaction, resulting in poor quality, impure taste, increased pH value, deepened color, and destruction of tissue structure; NH3 produced by NH4HCO3 decomposition is easily soluble in water to form NH4OH, resulting in odor and increased pH value of products, which has serious damage to vitamins Therefore, NaHCO3 and NH4HCO3 are usually only used for products with less water content, such as biscuits In the preparation of composite bulking agent, the reaction between NaHCO3 and acid should be as thorough as possible On the one hand, it can increase the gas production, and on the other hand, it can make the residue of baking powder be neutral salt, so as to maintain the color and taste of the finished product The chemical fermentation powder widely used in families and bakeries is a compound leavening agent, which is made of sodium aluminum sulfate and other acid salts (commonly known as fermentation acid), sodium bicarbonate, starch and other supplements In a word, the kinds of leavening agents are yeast and chemical leavening agents, which are widely used in our life and production However, we want to remind you that we should not use bulking agent in large quantities, because it may affect children's intellectual development, so we should also eat less food made of bulking agent The above is the introduction of the relevant content of the leavening agent, so can the food leavening agent eat for a long time ? you need to remind your friends that although the leavening agent is helpful for the taste effect of food in baking, it will also cause harm to your body if you eat it for a long time This is what you need to pay attention to, not only focusing on food, but also paying more attention to health Now the country has a food safety detector, which can accurately check whether the food is safe, edible, and will not cause physical harm If you want to know more about food safety, please go to Baibai safety net Editor in charge: he xianrob
