Reconstruction with Sodium Caseinate

Description

Reconstruction with sodium caseinate involves dissolving the caseinate in hot water to create a stable emulsion, which is then cooled to set and form a gel-like texture.

Technical

The process involves dissolving sodium caseinate in hot water (around 80-90°C) to create a stable emulsion, which is then cooled to around 40-50°C, allowing it to set and form a gel-like texture. This technique is sensitive to pH, temperature, and ionic strength, which can affect its stability and texture.
