Product Description
Pure Fast-Acting Sweetness.
Elevate your craft with Dextrose 1kg, the versatile ingredient for professional chefs seeking superior control and consistent results. Dextrose, also known as glucose, is a simple sugar derived from corn starch. It boasts a clean, slightly sweet taste and dissolves rapidly, making it a valuable tool in any kitchen.
- Achieve beautiful caramelisation and develop richer flavours in baked goods and sauces with dextrose's superior browning properties compared to sucrose (table sugar).
- Prevent ice crystal formation in frozen desserts like ice cream and sorbet. Dextrose's low crystallisation point ensures a smooth, creamy texture.
- Supercharge your fermentation process in brewing, kombucha making, and other applications. Dextrose is readily broken down by yeast, leading to faster and more complete fermentation.
- Replace a portion of table sugar in recipes with dextrose. Its lower sweetness level (around 70% that of sucrose) allows for precise sweetness control without overpowering delicate flavours.
- Recipe Inspiration for Dextrose:
- Creamy Vanilla Bean Ice Cream: Swap out a portion of sugar for dextrose to create a velvety smooth ice cream with a luxurious mouthfeel. The dextrose helps prevent ice crystal formation, guaranteeing a delightful scoop every time.
- Perfectly Caramelised Pastries: Brush your croissants or puff pastry with a dextrose solution before baking. This simple step promotes even browning and delivers that irresistible golden crust.
- Flavourful Fruit Coulis: Intensify the natural sweetness of your fruit coulis by adding a touch of dextrose. It enhances the fruit flavour without adding excessive sweetness or interfering with vibrant colours.
- Next-Level Kombucha: Ditch the table sugar and fuel your kombucha with dextrose. It provides a readily available energy source for the yeast, leading to a faster and more efficient fermentation process.
