Introduction: now there is a suitable bulking agent, which is safer for us to use What is the composition of the compound bulking agent? In order to overcome the limitation of single bulking agent, a compound bulking agent was developed based on the principle of acid-base neutralization So what are the ingredients of the compound leavening agent? The composite bulking agent is generally composed of three parts: ① carbonate, whose dosage mainly accounts for 20% - 40%, and its main function is gas production ② Acid salt or organic acid The dosage is about 35% ~ 50% The function is to react with carbonate, control the reaction rate and the effect of bulking agent, and adjust the pH of the product ③ Additives, such as starch, fatty acid, salt, etc., are used to improve the preservation of bulking agent, prevent moisture absorption failure, regulate the gas generation rate or make the gas generation uniform The content of additives is generally 10% - 40% In addition to neutralizing the acid salt in the compound bulking agent to ensure the quality of food, there is also an important role in controlling the reaction speed in the gas production process The principle is that carbonates such as sodium bicarbonate can produce gases only when they react with hydrogen ions separated from acid salts The rate of hydrogen ion production is related to the decomposition rate, dissolution characteristics, water content, temperature and other factors of the acid salt, so the decomposition characteristics of the acid salt can be used to control the gas production process of the bulking agent, so as to adapt to the process flow Bulking agent is also a kind of food additive In many foods, bulking agent will be used Can the food bulking agent be eaten for a long time? In fact, if it is eaten according to the national regulations, it will not hurt people, and some will increase the nutritional value of food Now the state has a food safety detector , can accurately check whether the food is safe, edible, and will not cause physical injury If you want to know more about food safety, please go to Baibai safety net Editor in charge: he xianrob
