Why use emulsifiers?
Emulsifiers are essential for combining ingredients that do not mix easily, such as oil and water, creating stable mixtures. They improve the texture and consistency of products such as sauces, creams and ice creams, and help maintain a uniform taste and appearance. They facilitate the incorporation of air into mousses and foams, achieving a light texture. They also extend the shelf life of products by preventing separation of components. They adjust the viscosity of liquids for better application and enhance the consumer's sensory experience. They are key in the world of chocolate and ice cream, but mastering emulsification is essential in most preparations, savoury, sweet and also liquid.
