GUAR GUM 500g

It’s used to make sauces, pastry, baked goods, dairy products, nectars, beverages, and more. 

For ice-cream making 

It prevents the appearance of crystals during freezing. It also helps to disperse fats and proteins in dairy products, creating a thick, creamy consistency.  

For pastry making 

It is used to make doughs more elastic and spongier. 

In confectionery, gluten-free and chocolate powder preparations, cakes and sponge cake doughs, it provides a softer end result that’s easy to remove from moulds and slice. 

For baking

When defrosting (fillings, for example), it helps to reduce water loss and facilitates the mixing of bread doughs. 

It produces a softer texture for kneading and bread-making in general. 

For cheeses and other dairy products

It’s used to make soft, processed and pasteurised cheeses.  

For beverages 

It’s used to thicken fruit drinks and sugar-free diet drinks, providing better texture and stable viscosity.

Nutrition 

Guar gum is a soluble dietary fibre. In combination with water, it forms a gel-like substance that prevents the absorption of sugar, fats and cholesterol in a healthy way.  

The dietary fibre expands when combined with water, which is why it is used to treat obesity, since it increases the feeling of fullness and so helps to reduce calorie intake.  

Guar is essential for low-fat foods, and the real secret of low-calorie foods. 

How is guar gum made?  

There are several ways to make guar gum, which involve separating the endosperm from the husk of the germ. The seeds are soaked or roasted to separate them from the husk. They are then ground to separate the germ from the endosperm. The separated endosperm contains 80% galactonate which, when ground, is the guar gum offered by SOC CHEF.
