Questions & Answers

Can I eat this? Does it contain gluten?

I don't think so. There is nothing else in the world like it. It contains no gluten in any way. This information may be found by reading the labels on the products you buy and the ingredients list.

What kind of citrate do you have? Monosodium, disodium, or trisodium? Three carboxyl groups are present on the molecule for a Na +. I was just wondering how high the PH is. ?

It is a tri sodium citrate. Melting cheese is an enjoyable experience.

My SC and cheese came out grainy and not smooth and velvety because of half a teaspoon and eight ounces of SC. Is there anything you can think of that ?

My post on this blog seems to come up often, and I'm wondering if it was tricky getting the ratios right. I'm not sure if it scales upwards, since I have not made it in large quantities. To make this mixture, I mix 1/2 tsp of SC with 2 tsp of oil Three cups of cheese is basically eight ounces, but I think the only difference comes from the liquid I use. I have used just slightly more than a third of a cup of water, and my dough generally turns out smooth and delicious like Velveeta. believe the trick is to go slow, and to eat only a small amount of cheese at a time, the first two mouthfuls I always end up with 3 handfuls of mine that look like loose cheese floating in the water. However, it comes together at the end and thickens into a smooth and creamy mixture.

What is the source of this product in the USA?

Honestly, I'm not sure if it even matters, it's sodium citrate, which is really like asking "where did this gold come from before I accept it?" I love you so much, lol.

For easy melting of cheese, this works perfectly
5/5

Although I love mac and cheese, I can be a bit of a pain when it comes to making Mornay sauce. There are a lot of recipes out there that tell you to mix shredded cheese as is into hot pasta, and that is a bad joke. I wanted to hear what some people suggested, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to try.

I have used this stuff twice now and I can confirm that it has worked flawlessly both times. To make this cheese sauce, I just heat a bit of milk, add a dash of sodium citrate, and then proceed to fold Melting it perfectly and smoothly is one of its best qualities. Make your own mac and cheese this way it's easy, quick, and not to mention delicious. That said, it won't taste the same as making a real sauce from scratch. By performing the Mornay with the roux, you get a bit of nuttiness and depth that you wouldn't get by performing Nonetheless, if you don't want to waste time making a flour substitute or you just don't wish to deal with that step, this is a good choice.

A great way to make homemade cheese
5/5

Our holiday party party went overboard when we used this recipe for cheese, and there was more dip than our guests could consume. Don't make so much queso that you eat it for 5 meals after the party, in your excitement about homemade queso. This sounds great, but I guess there is a limit to how much cheese you can consume. How could anyone have known? You can count on this package to last for a.

This was the first time I used it and it turned out the best Mac & Cheese I'd ever had
5/5

A friend would periodically remind me that I should use Sodium Citrate to help make my mac and cheese even better, as I have been making it for at least 10 years and am extremely proud of it. After he pressed me to buy this product, I caved into his pressure because of the reviews and low price. I followed the recipe's directions which were not too different from my own, and it was incredible how easily I could mix the powder into my mix and how the quality improved immediately. In the past, I used to make a delicious sauce but on occasion, it would clump up or be too hard to work with and I would have to adjust the balance between The product I have used on average every four days is unbeatable, and I have been recommending it to others.

Describes what it does well To get it right, you'll need to look at "how to use" online
5/5

At last, I will be able to easily make cheese dips and sauces! Having tried a variety of recipes, I've found that each one reduced the flavor of sharp cheese too much for my taste. Today, you can add ingredients if you want, not if you need to. You might want to start with the smallest amount possible of Sodium Citrate, since it has both a salty and sour taste. If you use too much, your sauce or dip will taste bad. Make sure the heat is on *LOW* and that you are stirring constantly. To cook with my induction cooktop, I used the 180 deg F setting. Too high of a temperature or too long of a heating time will cause the oil to Although they will still be soft, the oil will not mix back into the solids. Just heat slowly and stir continuously as you start with a small amount. If the smoothness of the final product is not what you want, remove from heat as soon as possible. The cheese should also be soaked in some liquid -- but you have to add a little liquid to it A pound of cheese weighs about 65 ounces, and you add liquid to it as a percent, and then add sodium citrate in amounts of between 2 and 5. The range is between 0% and It is zero percent of the liquid plus the weight of the cheese. If you want the numbers to be accurate, you need to find out how to use it.

I like it very much
5/5

A good product. I use it in conjunction with potassium citrate in my Gatorade drink to replenish electrolytes. By using a ratio of 1, use 1 as your basis. A mixture of five parts potassium to one part sodium. The sodium content is zero. Gatorade powder rather than Gatorade liquid will save you a lot of There is an estimated 35 cents per quart. There are 200mg of sodium and 125mg of potassium in every.

I've never had anything so good and so easy as these cheese dips! Cheese is my favorite food - I love it! You can make mac and cheese with beer cheese, queso dip, and mac and cheese with queso
5/5

I'm in love with It always turns out my roux is grainy, my cheese sauce is bland, and I just don't like it. There are a lot of problems that this magical powder eliminates. The beer cheese dip was made in five minutes with 1 tsp sodium citrate, *4 ounces dark beer, 8 ounces Monterey jack cheese, (2 ounces medium cheddar cheese, and 2 ounces colby cheese, all shredded and added gradually). I think it's as good as, and maybe even better than, my favorite restaurant The dip is ready! A fantastic product that is well worth every penny.

There is no cheese flavor in it at all
5/5

It would be a shame not to use real cheese and. The reason that American Cheese does not separate when melted is that it is made from sodium citrate. It's a travesty to eat American Cheese. There is no cheese flavor in it at all. Instead of using sodium citrate, why not use real cheese at the same time to make dishes that taste like cheese and don't separate when heated up. It's a bingo! A smooth sauce made from extra-virgin olive oil makes this mac and cheese the best of all time The cheddar is sharp and the sodium citrate is salty. I could not taste any sodium citrate! The only problem is that so little is required that the package will last for many Cheese fondue is now easy (it doesn't pose a challenge). I'm anxious to try it with hard.

Change the game in a cheeseball way
5/5

The product exactly does what it is advertised to do. Cheese is transformed into a mouthwatering cheese or mac 'n' cheese with this stuff. The smoked cheese I made with my home-smoked cheeses is totally transforming the way I make melted cheese. You want to make sure you have enough cheese on hand to share, so double it if you plan to bring it anywhere. In the past, I was concerned about rubbery skin that some people complain of when sodium citrate is used with cheese sauce when it cools. However, I haven't had that problem yet. The cheese dip I made the other day was dippable straight from the refrigerator! I urge you if you are reading these many positive reviews to just buy it. You won't be disappointed.
