Description

Glucono Delta Lactone (GDL) (500g/PKG)

Commonly known as GDL, this familiar additive is used when producing fermented meat products.  GDL can be added on its own or in combination with a starter culture to provide a typical tangy flavor to products like salami.  It achieves this by lowering the product pH, which also provides a longer product shelf life compared to non-fermented products.
