Agar Agar

The Plant-Based Gelatin Your Kitchen Has Been Waiting For

Long before gelatin became a pantry staple, coastal South Indian kitchens were already using something better — Agar Agar. Derived from red algae and sun-dried the traditional way, this humble ingredient has quietly powered generations of puddings, sweets, and cooling drinks without anyone making a fuss about it.

It doesn't shout. It just sets. Perfectly, every time.

How to Use

Soak 1 teaspoon of Agar Agar strands in water for 30 minutes, then simmer until fully dissolved. Use it to set puddings, panna cottas, fruit jellies, payasam, or any dessert that needs a firm, clean set. It works beautifully in both sweet and savoury preparations.

Ratio tip: 1 tsp Agar Agar sets approximately 1 cup (250ml) of liquid.

Simple ingredients. Honest food. The Nattrinai way.
