MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE (NIGARI), flakes

These Magnesium Chloride (NIGARI) flakes from OM Foods are a high-quality, naturally sourced mineral perfect for specialized kitchen and topical uses. The pure Magnesium Chloride flakes (chemical compound MgCl2) are produced from seawater. After the sodium chloride is carefully removed, the water is evaporated, yielding these concentrated flakes. In the culinary world, this compound is traditionally known as Nigari in Japan or Lushui in China, and is essential in the preparation of artisanal tofu.

The primary culinary use is as a coagulant in the process of making tofu from soy milk, where the mineral content provides the necessary bonding action for a firm texture. Additionally, the flakes can be used for topical applications, such as in baths or dissolved to create homemade sprays, sometimes called "Magnesium oil." These flakes are easy to dissolve in water and are a versatile staple for specialized cooking and topical preparation.
