Aia hoʻokahi "akā" i loko o ka nui o nā meaʻai no nā huahana confectionery: pili lākou i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā hua moa. A ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia kēia no nā mea ʻai meaʻai (koe wale no nā ovo-vegetarians). ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, i ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana i ka meaʻai meaʻai meaʻai, ua ʻike lōʻihi ʻia kahi gelling ikaika e like me agar-agar - kahi koho maikaʻi loa i nā hua manu a me ka gelatin.
Ma kahi o 4% o ka nui o ka agar-agar he mau paʻakai mineral, ma kahi o 20% ka wai, a ʻo ke koena he pyruvic a me glucuronic acids, pentose, agarose, agaropectin, angiogalactose.
ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka agar-agar kahi ʻāpana o nā algae ʻulaʻula a me ka ʻulaʻula, e hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i loko o ka wai paila, a i ka wā e hoʻomaha ʻia ai ka wai a hiki i ke kanahā degere Celsius, lilo ia i gel. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka hoʻololi ʻana mai kahi kūlana paʻa i kahi moku wai a ʻaʻole palena ʻole.
Ua ʻike ʻia nā ʻano kemika kūʻokoʻa a me ke kino o ka agar-agar i ka makahiki 1884 e ke kanaka microbiologist Kelemania ʻo Hesse. He kakaikahi ka poʻe i ʻike ʻo ka meaʻai 406 me ka prefix weliweli "E" ʻaʻole pono. Manaʻo ʻia? ʻAe, he agar-agar kēia, ʻo ia kā mākou e kamaʻilio nei. Ma ke kumu, hiki ke ʻai ʻia i ka nui, akā ʻaʻole mākou e ʻai like me ia, ʻeā?
Ke hoʻohana nei i ka agar-agar, hiki iā mākou ke hana i nā mea hana o ka "confectionery" meaʻai ʻaʻole e ʻono wale nō, akā maikaʻi nō hoʻi! Akā, no ka mea, ʻaʻole i ka maikaʻi wale nō nā pōmaikaʻi, akā i ka nui, a laila ʻaʻole pono e lawe ʻia ka agar-agar, ka nui o nā huaora, macro-, microelements, hard-to-digest coarse fiber.
Me ke kōkua o kēia huahana pono, ua hoʻomākaukau ʻia nā jams, marshmallows, marmalade, candy fillings, soufflés, marshmallows, chewing gum a pēlā aku. Manaʻo nui ʻia ʻo "Confectionery" me agar-agar no ka poʻe e loaʻa ana i ka constipation a me ka maʻi diabetes.
Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe i lilo i mea ʻai meaʻai, a laila e ʻike ʻoe ʻaʻole e liʻiliʻi kou ola, a ʻoi aku paha ka ʻono ma mua o ia, no ka mea, ʻaʻole maʻamau nā mea ʻono ma ka papaʻaina meaʻai!
