Composition

Composition unknown — our sources do not have it.

Methocel (methylcellulose) is purified cellulose. Grade 1 purification. To be used in food applications where a thickener, stabiliser or dispersant is required. Methocel disolves in cold water and gels in hot water. Methocel has the unique ability to form a gel when heated above 45ºC which will then return to a liquid state upon cooling (approx 15ºC) . Perfect for creating hot gels which melt in the mouth. Methocel can also be used to produce clear solid & flexible films. Films are produced by allowing a Methocel solution to dry out at a low temperature. Preventing the soltution from gelling. Other applications include emulsification and suspension. Applications: Create Hot Gels which will melt in the mouth. Use as a thickener and stabiliser in sauces and dressing. Add Ice Cream to help prevent ice crystals forming during freezing. Produce solid, flexible and clear films. Create Hot Ice Creams and Jellies. How to use: Methocel dissolves in cold water and gels in hot water. But preparing a solution of Methocel cannot be done with just cold water. The Methocel will not disperse very well and will lump. The best method to use Methocel is to add to hot water approx 70ºC. Then add twice the amount of cold water to the solution. This will bring the temperature of the solution down and the Methocel will dissolve. For example if your recipe uses 900ml of water, add the methocel to 300ml of hot water approx 70ºC then add 600ml of cold water. Should be refrigerated for approx 3 hours before using Methocel solution to ensure all particules are disolved. Hot gels using Methocel may sometimes be subject to a small amount of leeching, this can be controlled by adding Xanthan Gum to help bind the water and solution. Dosage Rates: 0.5%-2.0% Storage Conditions: Dark, Dry and Cool Conditions. Shelf life of 2 years.
