Agar-agar a perfect kitchen ally for my slimming diet!

Agar agar is a concentrate of fairy powder that can help us get into our swimsuits and our little dresses for this summer. What is his secret? His calorific intake close to zero! So finish the complexes and to us them ice cream, jellies, blanks and other culinary delights that we try to avoid when the good weather returns.
 
Mixing several algae, agar agar is also rich in mucilage. A word a little barbaric to describe its action to swell in contact with water and produce a substance close to gelatin. It promotes digestion by lubricating the intestine, captures the toxins present in the body and makes it possible to arrive more quickly to satiety! The icing on the cake, agar agar brings calcium, phosphorus and iron to our body.
 
You will understand, it replaces handmade traditional gelatin! But its gelling power 8 times higher is used with meticulousness. Generally we dilute a bag of powder of 2 grams in half a liter of water that is then boiled, but it all depends on your expectations: compact or creamy jelly for you to choose and test!
Vegetarians will be the first delighted and will finally be able to feast like everyone else because let's not forget, traditional gelatin is made from skin and bones of beef or pork.
 
Little tip of the Rising Sun: the Japanese add a spoon of agar agar every day in their tea or even on their rice to slim down and be in shape.
