Mono and Diglycerides

[eSkillet.com]

Would anyone know of an online source to purchase mono and diglycerides?

This place sells them. They look like an industrial supplier, though, so aside from free samples you might have a hard time buying small quantities.

None of my usual potion dealers has them. Possibly because glycerides work in very small quantities and so are hard to use in home or restaurant sized batches ... not sure. Most people I know use some kind of lecithin or gelatin for emulsification.

Is dry soy lecithin oil soluable?

I'll have to give it a try. It's for an oil based foam.

Dunno ... I'd call those guys at gilko. Looks like they have a line for tech questions. You can also join the forum at Alinea (it's called alinea mosaic). The chefs there have all the answers.
