Preserve Color and Add Taste with Citric Acid
Citric acid provides cooks, chefs and food preparation specialists with some remarkable effects. It retains color in foods such as avocados, peaches and other items that suffer from exposure to the air. It adds excellent sour flavors to food and beverages, and it is a remarkable preservative for everything from home made canned goods, jams and pickles to ice cream.
Many restaurants and specialty food companies rely on citric acid in large quantities, and while its purchase is monitored by some regulatory agencies, for food consumption it can be utilized freely.
The primary use of citric acid occurs in the beverage industry, where the food is used to enhance flavor in sodas and even in bottled wines.
