Dr. Oetker citric acid 20 g

Powdered food-grade citric acid. It is perfect for enhancing the flavor of compotes, jams, and fruit salads. When preserving, citric acid emphasizes the natural taste of fruits and vegetables and aids in gelling. You can also use it to flavor beverages, salads, and compotes. Moreover, it is an effective aid in descaling, for example, in kettles or coffee makers. In the food industry, it is commonly used under the code E330 as an acidity regulator and an additive that extends the shelf life of products.

Although it is not a preservative, by lowering the pH, it extends the stability of certain nutrients and vitamins. Chemically, it is an organic compound belonging to hydroxycarboxylic acids, which is produced by chemical synthesis or citric fermentation of pure sugar or starch hydrolysate using mold cultures. Claims regarding its carcinogenic effects are unfounded.
