## Overview

Pure Refined Kappa Carrageenan is a premium, Non-GMO, vegan-certified gelling agent derived from red seaweed and processed in Maine. Ideal for creating plant-based cheeses and other vegan culinary delights, it offers superior thickening and emulsifying properties, backed by Orthodox Union Kosher certification for guaranteed quality and safety.

## Description

100% Pure Kappa Carrageenan (e407) for use as a gelling agent in molecular gastronomy. A natural hydrocolloid, carrageenan is a natural extract from specific red seaweed species that are farmed and processed. It is used as a suspending and emulsifying stablizer, thickener, binder and gelling agent. These outstanding properties makes it a very versatile ingredient, finding more usage in meat. Typical applications include making plant-based cheeses and usage in place of animal-based gelatin. This refined kappa type is soluble in hot water at temperatures above 180 F.

Review: Great for making vegan cheeses - I use this product occasionally to make the vegan cheeses in the book "The Non-Dairy Formulary." This product is superior to agar-agar in how it performs as a thickening/gelatinizing agent. For the price, I believe it's a good investment if you really want to get into making your own nutmilks/vegan cheeses. The vegan mozzarella I can make with this is so absolutely amazing, I would daresay it is identical to its dairy-derived version in taste and texture, and only slightly different in how it melts. I will probably continue to purchase this product when I run out, but 14 oz will definitely last me quite a while.
Review: Great product - This is the second time purchasing this product. I got the smaller 2oz quantity in 2017 to try with the Gentle Chef non dairy evolution cheeses and they turned out amazing. When he released his new gluten free cookbook which makes more use of Kappa Carageenen I knew I needed a bigger quantity to have on hand to make the cheeses and also the GF ahimsa meat analogs. Definitely give it a try and highly recommend pairing it with his range of cheese! In the picture what you see are the Pepper jack, Brie and mozzarella di tuscano and also the GF pepperoni. These were a hit with both vegans and non vegans alike!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for making vegan cheeses
*by A***L on January 24, 2014*

I use this product occasionally to make the vegan cheeses in the book "The Non-Dairy Formulary." This product is superior to agar-agar in how it performs as a thickening/gelatinizing agent. For the price, I believe it's a good investment if you really want to get into making your own nutmilks/vegan cheeses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by J***U on July 29, 2019*

This is the second time purchasing this product. I got the smaller 2oz quantity in 2017 to try with the Gentle Chef non dairy evolution cheeses and they turned out amazing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Ingredient that is a Must Have for Every Kitchen/Pantry!
*by J***B on January 2, 2017*

I have used this product to make artisan vegan cheese recipes, like Brie, Camembert, Havarti, Mozarella, English Cheddar, etc. My friends, co-workers and relatives (mostly non-vegan, some veg, and mostly omnis) have been so impressed and can't believe I made such an amazing cheese that they cannot tell is not dairy-based or store bought. This ingredient is key and I cannot find it in any grocery stores, so I order it online. It works great! (I use Skye Michael Conroy's Nondair Formulary cookbook, by the way - highly recommend you buy that too!) I am looking forward to using this ingredient for other recipes as well!
