Konjac Gum is a natural dietary fiber derived from the root of the konjac plant. This ingredient has many health benefits and is often used as a thickener, emulsifier, and stabilizer in food production.
One of the most popular applications of Konjac Gum is in the production of noodles and other pasta products. This is because Konjac Gum has a high viscosity, which allows it to create a chewy texture in the finished product. Additionally, Konjac Gum is low in calories, making it a popular ingredient in weight loss products.
Konjac Gum is also used in the production of vegan and vegetarian meat alternatives. It can be used to create meat substitutes that have a similar texture and mouthfeel to real meat, making it a popular ingredient in plant-based protein products
