Ultra Gel - The Ultimate Thickener
Ultra Gel is really the ultimate thickener. While most thickeners work fairly well with heat, they really tend to clump up when added to cold items. However, Ultra Gel is amazing in that it can be added hot or cold! Ultra Gel is a food starch made from waxy maize and is great for a myriad of applications.
Here is how easy it is to thicken gravy:
Add in a few tablespoons of Ultra Gel
Stir in with a wisk, and shortly thereafter you have picture perfect gravy.
When you make sauces with Ultra Gel, they don't separate like when you use traditional corn starch. Ultra Gel helps to stabilize low-fat products such as salad dressings, add body to low sugar foods, such as jams, and allow other sweeteners to be used in a wide variety of foods. Even if you do have some lumping, you can usually stir out the lumps. If not, add a bit more liquid and keep stirring. As with most products, you do have to add in slowly for the most part, but to enjoy lump free sauces and gravies, there really is only one choice: Ultra Gel.
