What is Sodium Alginate?
Sodium Alginate is a natural polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed, particularly from species such as Macrocystis pyrifera, Ascophyllum nodosum, and Laminaria digitata. It’s widely used in the food industry as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier due to its unique ability to form a gel when it comes into contact with calcium ions. This property makes it ideal for creating spheres, foams, and other innovative textures in the culinary world. Additionally, its natural origin and versatile applications make it a favorite among chefs experimenting with molecular gastronomy and modernist cuisine.
How to use Sodium Alginate?
For the best results, it’s crucial to measure your Sodium Alginate and calcium solution precisely. Dissolve the Sodium Alginate in water or your chosen liquid using a blender or an immersion blender to ensure a smooth, lump-free mixture. Allow it to rest for a few hours or overnight to remove any air bubbles. Combine the Sodium Alginate solution with a calcium-rich liquid (like a calcium lactate or calcium chloride solution) to create pearls. After forming your gels, rinse them gently with water to remove excess calcium. Store them in a water bath until you are ready to use them in your dish. Sodium Alginate is a versatile ingredient that can carry various flavors. Feel free to experiment with different liquids, such as fruit juices, broths, or sauces, to create unique taste experiences. This ingredient opens up endless possibilities for innovative food presentations and is essential for anyone interested in the science of cooking.

Spherification
Spherification and reverse spherification are culinary techniques that use calcium lactate and sodium alginate to create gel-like spheres. In spherification, a sodium alginate solution is dropped into a calcium lactate bath, forming a gel membrane around the liquid. Reverse spherification involves dropping a calcium lactate mixture into a sodium alginate bath, producing more stable spheres. These techniques are popular in modern gastronomy for creating visually striking and texturally unique dishes.
