Glucono delta-lactone (GDL) is a naturally-occurring food additive (E575)
GDL is used as a sequestrant, an acidifier, or a curing, pickling, or leavening agent.
GDL is a white odorless crystalline powder.
Glucono-delta-lactone, upon addition to water readily forms an equilibrium mixture of the lactone GDL and gluconic acid
TOFU :
GDL is an important ingredient in the manufacture of silken TOFU : dosage 0.3% to 0.5 %
add 3 to 5 grams ( 1 teaspoon) of GDL as coagulant / liter of soy milk.
Baking :
Use 1 teaspoon of GDL with 1/2 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) per cup (140g) of flour to make it “self raising”.
1 teaspoon of GDL + 1/2 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate is equivalent to 2 teaspoons of regular baking powder.
