Pectin is soluble in 20 times of water to form a milky white viscous colloidal solution, which is weakly acidic. It is more stable in acidic solution than in alkaline solution. It has strong heat resistance and is almost insoluble in ethanol and other organic solvents.
1. In the production process of yogurt, different types of pectin have different functions. For example, adding high-fat pectin can stabilize the structure of yogurt, while adding low-fat pectin can prevent whey separation.
2. When producing jam, the pectin content in raw materials is too little, so the thickening effect of pectin can be used, and 0.20% pectin can be used as a thickening agent. The amount of pectin used in low-sugar jam is about 0.60%.
3. Pectin has strong water absorption, which can not only increase the volume of dough, but also improve the freshness, stability and softness of dough. In the production of hamburgers, after adding pectin, the amount of flour used to make hamburgers of the same volume will be reduced by 30%. Bread made from pectin-added dough can prolong the selling time of bread.
4. Pectin is a kind of suspending agent, which can reduce the hard matter caused by the sedimentation of pulp, and make the fruit particles evenly suspended in the beverage. It also enhances the taste of the juice and also acts as a stomach invigorator.
