How does citric acid help jam and marmalade set?

Citric acid helps pectin work properly by increasing acidity, which supports a firmer gel and a cleaner fruit flavour, especially when you are working with sweeter, lower acid fruits.

Can citric acid stop sliced fruit from going brown?

Yes, a light citric acid solution can slow enzymic browning by lowering the surface pH, which makes it useful for keeping cut apples, pears and avocados looking fresher during prep.

What does citric acid do in quick home cheesemaking?

In heat and acid set cheeses, citric acid adjusts the acidity of milk so curds form more readily when warmed, which is why it appears in some paneer, ricotta and quick mozzarella style recipes.

Ingredients:
