What is Sodium Alginate?

Sodium Alginate is an extract of seaweed, used by molecular chefs for the spherification process. It forms a gel in the presence of calcium ions. Sodium Alginate is a gelling agent that dilutes when cold with strong agitation. Sodium Alginate can be used to create soft, firm, ambient and heat-resistant gels and to produce foams. Sodium Alginate is also commonly used as a thickener, emulsifier and texture improver.

The result is a visually stunning and palate-pleasing delicacy that showcases the magic of modern culinary techniques.
