Beef gelatine
Beef gelatine is a food ingredient derived from beef collagen, which is a protein found in the connective tissue and bones of cows. It is a commonly used additive in various food products. Gelatine is not plant-based but comes from animal sources.
To make beef gelatine, the collagen is extracted from the beef tissues by boiling them. The process involves breaking down the collagen into a gelatinous substance, which is then dried and formed into a powder or sheets. This versatile ingredient is widely used in the food industry for its gelling, thickening, and stabilising properties.
You will often find beef gelatine listed on food labels as it is used in a variety of products including gummy sweets, marshmallows, yoghurts, and some desserts like jelly. It helps give these foods a smooth texture and the right consistency. In baking, it can also be used to add structure to certain recipes like mousses and cheesecakes.
