Explain the Food Applications of guar

• Guar imparts smoothness to ice cream by promoting small ice crystals during the freezing process.
• Guar gum in the dressing of cottage cheese processing promotes curd integrity by friction reduction or turbidity, which allows the curd to slip during processing.
• Guar influences baked goods in both dough and finished product. Guar in tomato based sauces helps to maintain a desirable color as well as imparting body and stabilizing the system.
• Guar gum imparts a desirable gloss or sheen to canned pet foods. Removal of the pet food from the can is also facilitated by the friction reduction function of agar.
