kanten

A vegetarian gelatin substitute made from dried red algae during a laborious hand-made process utilizing pure mountain water in the cold dry winter climate of the Japan Alps. As a zero-calorie ingredient without any sea residue, kanten is versatile and ideal for desserts, hors d'oeuvres, salads, or any recipes calling for a vegetarian gelatin. Kanten solidifies at room temperature and melts at 80 degrees Celsius. Since it does not dissolve with digestive enzymes or intestinal bacteria, it is the ideal intestinal cleanser.
