Description
Ecowest Alum – 7 oz is a food-grade potassium alum powder widely used in cooking and food preparation. It enhances texture by preserving firmness in pickled fruits and vegetables, tenderizes meats during marination, and contributes to crispness in fried or baked dishes. In cooking, alum is known for improving batter crispness, reducing oil absorption, and balancing moisture in foods.
While alum is often considered a seasoning or condiment ingredient in traditional African and Asian kitchens—especially in spice blends or pickling mixes—it’s also used in small amounts to help with food texture and consistency.
