Words from The French Pantry

Citric acid (E330) is an acidulant found naturally in fruit that lowers the pH of preparations. It also regulates pH when making hard candies, fruit jellies (pâtes de fruits) and other confections.

It is sometimes used in baking powders instead of tartaric acid. It dissolves easily in water and ethanol, helps control water activity and enhances the antioxidant effect of ascorbic acid.

Fruit pastes, coulis, confits, jellies, pastries

Words from Louis Francois

For better dispersion, use a solution of 50% water and 50% acid. Add it at the end of cooking in pectin-based jams or confectionery to prevent premature setting.
