Magnesium Chloride Food Grade
Magnesium Chloride Food Grade is used as a food additive. It is used in food industry as a flavor enhancer and to improve the texture and stability of food products. Magnesium Chloride is commonly used in dairy products, such as ice cream and cheese, as well as in processed meats and baked goods.
Magnesium Chloride Food Grade is an important coagulant, used in the preparation of tofu, soy, beverages, and other food industries. Magnesium ions attract moisture and hold a significant amount of water, which reduces microbial activity. This way, magnesium chloride can increase shelf-life in several food products, such as bakery products. The sodium content can even be reduced significantly due to the addition of magnesium chloride. The specific flavour profile of magnesium chloride can result in a beneficial impact on specific flavours, such as salmiak and bitter tones. In addition, the water holding capacity can impact texture in a way that products can remain softer or more moisty.
