Can these be used in a recipe that calls for agar agar flakes (i'm wondering if i can crush these up to measure in a tablespoon?)

Agar agar flakes are different than strips. So, No, I believe it can be substituted.

What is the origin of this product ?

Hello- The Agar Strips are imported from China. Please let us know if we can be of additional assistance. Thanks!

Is the strips the same as the string?

I would imagine it’s the same. I cut them with scissor before rehydrating. To make them matchstick size. Otherwise, yes, they could be described as long strings.

Do you have recipes for the colorful gel strips and molds in the photos?

I imagine food coloring water would dye the agar agar.

Its Agar!

Exactly what it's supposed to be. Came packaged well, the agar strips were all whole (unbroken), and I was able to use the ingredient to make my favourite agar-agar dessert! Really glad this is available online to be honest - it was impossible to find in the Asian supermarkets I visited (and I went looking all over the place!)

I was happy

They're not a perfect substitute for gelatin, but if you're buying these, you likely know what you're getting. They arrived in good time and condition. No complaints.
