Glucose syrup is a kind of starch syrup produced by the action of enzyme or acid with starch as the raw material. The main components are glucose, maltose, maltotriose, maltotetraose, and tetrasaccharide. Also known as liquid glucose syrup.
Liquid glucose syrup can be bought out of the door, or it can be made at home, but it should be noted that the liquid glucose syrup produced at home has a shorter shelf life.
The liquid glucose syrup is a viscous liquid which is heated and kneaded with white sugar or glucose syrup and an appropriate amount of water, sugar, honey and the like. Generally, according to the degree of tanning, it can be divided into four types: bright paste, mortar, paste pulp and dilute pulp.
- Bright paste. 500 grams of sugar and 150 grams to 200 grams of water plus, heated to 110 ° C (with a spoon to pull the wire can be extended by about 4 cm), add glucose syrup (also can be replaced by sugar) 150 grams and then heated to 110 ° C can. Note that the heat during the tanning should be appropriate.
- Mortar. 500 grams of sugar is added to 150 grams of water and heated to 110 ° C (appear “white frost”).
- paste pulp. The method of tanning is the same as a bright paste, but the heat is lighter than the bright paste.
- Dilute pulp. Tanning method is the same as a bright paste, but the amount of water added is about 250 grams, plus about 500 grams of glucose syrup, the heat is lighter than the paste pulp. It’s easy to make syrup, which taste is moisturized.
Application of liquid glucose syrup in West Point
Liquid glucose syrup is often used in noodles, mousse sauces, fondants, caramel, and hard candy.
Most of the sugars such as soft candy and burdock are added with glucose syrup. The temperature of coking reaction of glucose is lower than that of white granulated sugar (only about 150 °C), and the sweetness is lower than that of white granulated sugar (about 70% of white granulated sugar). And it has better adhesion, water retention, and mouthfeel. Therefore, glucose can make the candy such as soft candy and burdock easier to be characterized, and the inside is softer and the taste is better.
Liquid glucose syrup – health begins with eating, begins with the deli. Deli is the liquid glucose syrup manufacturing plant.
