Tartaric Acid
Tartaric acid is often used in food as a natural preservative, for example when making jam. Tartaric acid also stabilizes egg whites and increases their heat resistance and volume. It is therefore often used when making meringue foam and to preserve egg whites after baking. Finally, it prevents crystallization of sugar syrups and, in combination with baking soda, it’s a leavening agent.
