Pectin
Pectin is a complex carbohydrate (polysaccharide) that is found in the cell walls of plants. It is most commonly extracted from citrus fruits, such as oranges and lemons, and apples. Pectin is a structural component of the cell wall and plays a crucial role in providing strength and rigidity to plant tissues.
In the food industry, pectin is widely used as a gelling agent, thickener, and stabilizer. It is particularly valued for its ability to form a gel when combined with sugar and acid under certain conditions. This property makes it ideal for making jams, jellies, and fruit preserves.
