PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
What’s Flaxseed gum?
Flaxseed gum is a powdery product made from the seeds of flax (Linum usitatisssimum L.) through extraction, concentration, refining and drying. It has good solubility and can slowly absorb water to form a dispersion system with low viscosity. At the same time, it is also a heteropolysaccharide, a new type of food additive, widely used in the food industry, and also used in other industries, such as the pharmaceutical industry, etc.

Ddvantage:
- Adding 0.1%-0.5% linseed gum as a stabilizer can give the ice cream a waxy and slippery taste, and can improve the product’s resistance to melting and sudden heat.
- The application of linseed gum in high-temperature chopped ham sausage can enhance the water and oil retention of the product and inhibit the retrograde of the product.
- Flaxseed gum is beneficial to improve the stability of fat in the emulsification system of meat products and ensure the sensory quality of meat products during storage and cooking.
- Adding 0.05%-0.15% to noodle products can significantly improve the quality of flour, and improve the stretchability, cooking resistance, chewiness, etc. of noodles.
