Crème Caramel
Crème caramel (), flan, caramel pudding, condensed milk pudding, or caramel custard is a custard dessert with a layer of clear caramel sauce. History Custard has a long documented history, but crème caramel or flan in its modern form, with soft caramel on top, and prepared and cooked using a bain-marie, is first documented in by Jean-Baptiste Reboul, Jean Baptiste Reboul published in 1897. In the late 20th century, crème caramel was common in European restaurants. The food historian Alan Davidson (food writer), Alan Davidson speculates that this may have been because the dish could be prepared in bulk, in advance. Etymology In this context, in French means 'custard'. The names (French) and (Spanish) allude to the custard being turned over to be served. Both ''crème caramel'' () and ''flan'' are French names; however, ''flan'' has come to have different meanings in different regions. In Spanish-speaking countries (and often in the United States), crème caramel is known ...

Dessert
Dessert is a course (food), course that concludes a meal; the course consists of sweet foods, such as cake, biscuit, ice cream, and possibly a beverage, such as dessert wine or liqueur. Some cultures sweeten foods that are more commonly umami, savory to create desserts. In some parts of the world, there is no tradition of a dessert course to conclude a meal. Historically, the dessert course consisted entirely of foods 'from the storeroom' (''de l’office''), including fresh, stewed, preserved, and dried fruits; nuts; cheese and other dairy dishes; Cookie, dry biscuits (cookies) and wafers; and ices and Ice cream, ice creams. Sweet dishes from the kitchen, such as freshly prepared pastries, meringues, custards, puddings, and baked fruits, were served in the Entremet, entremets course, not in the dessert course. By the 20th century, though, sweet entremets had come to be included among the desserts. The modern term ''dessert'' can apply to many sweets, including fruit, custard ...

Carrageenan
Carrageenans or carrageenins ( ; ) are a family of natural linear sulfation, sulfated polysaccharides. They are extracted from red algae, red edible seaweeds. Carrageenans are widely used in the food industry, for their gelling, thickening, and stabilizing properties. Their main application is in dairy and meat products, due to their strong binding to food proteins. Carrageenans have emerged as a promising candidate in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications as they resemble animal glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). They are used for tissue engineering, wound coverage, and drug delivery. Carrageenans contain 15–40% ester-sulfate content, which makes them anionic polysaccharides. They can be mainly categorized into three classes based on their sulfate content. Kappa-carrageenan has one sulfate group per disaccharide, iota-carrageenan has two, and lambda-carrageenan has three. A common seaweed used for manufacturing the hydrophilic colloids to produce carrageenan is ...

Agar
Agar ( or ), or agar-agar, is a jelly-like substance consisting of polysaccharides obtained from the cell walls of some species of red algae, primarily from " ogonori" and " tengusa". As found in nature, agar is a mixture of two components, the linear polysaccharide agarose and a heterogeneous mixture of smaller molecules called agaropectin. It forms the supporting structure in the cell walls of certain species of algae and is released on boiling. These algae are known as agarophytes, belonging to the Rhodophyta (red algae) phylum. The processing of food-grade agar removes the agaropectin, and the commercial product is essentially pure agarose. Agar has been used as an ingredient in desserts throughout Asia and also as a solid substrate to contain culture media for microbiological work. Agar can be used as a laxative; an appetite suppressant; a vegan substitute for gelatin; a thickener for soups; in fruit preserves, ice cream, and other desserts; as a clarifying ...

Ramekin
A ramekin (, ; also spelled ramequin) is a small dish used for culinary purposes. Name The term is derived from the French ', a cheese- or meat-based dish baked in a small mould. The French term is in turn derived from early modern Dutch ', which translated to 'toast' or 'roasted minced meat', itself apparently from ''ram'' 'battering ram' + ''-kin'' 'diminutive', but it is unclear why. Usage With a common capacity range of approximately , ramekins are versatile dishes often used to bake and serve individual portions of both savory and sweet recipes. They are ideal for preparing classic dishes like crème brûlée, soufflé, molten chocolate cake, and other custard or egg-based recipes. Ramekins are also used for serving sides, condiments, or garnishes alongside entrées and can hold small portions of foods such as French onion soup, moin moin, and crumbles. Their size and heat-resistant design make them suitable for a wide range of culinary uses, from desserts to bake ...
