What it is
Glucono delta-lactone (GDL) is a naturally occurring compound that is a solid form of gluconic acid. It is made by drying gluconic acid, which can be produced by fermenting glucose, often from corn or other plant sources.
Why it's used
GDL acts as a leavening agent and acidifier in baked goods, dairy products, and meats. When mixed with water, it slowly releases gluconic acid, which helps dough rise and adds a tangy flavor. It is often used in products like breads, pizzas, and cheeses.
Health notes
In the U.S., GDL is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is metabolized by the body like other carbohydrates. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated GDL, and it is widely used globally. There are no major health controversies associated with its consumption at typical levels.
Allergen info
GDL is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens and does not contain gluten.
