Frequently asked questions
How can ascorbic acid be used to prevent fruit from browning?
Dilute 30 to 50 g per liter of cold water and soak freshly cut fruit in it for a few minutes before serving or storing.
What is the difference compared with citric acid?
Ascorbic acid initially acts as an antioxidant (it slows browning), while citric acid is primarily an acidifier that regulates pH and replaces lemon juice. The two can complement each other depending on the desired effect.
Can it be used in bread dough?
Yes, in baking it acts as an improving agent for breads, brioches, and yeast-raised doughs, added directly during kneading.
