You're missing a 6 in that, its actually Na3C6H5O7 but otherwise true.

use it in your queso, potatoes au gratin, beer cheese soup, spinach artichoke dip. it really makes it better. im a client for life.

So if I'm bleeding I can put nacho cheese on it?

No. Actually it's C6H5Na3O7. Now go down vote me. (:

Sodium citrate is the trick to make good cheses melt like American cheese without all the liquid styrofoam and enbalming fluid in it.
analnipple666
Are there any chemists here who can explain how the sodium citrate alters the molecular bonds so that the cheese melts????

Not really a SECRET ingredient

Thanks, now I just bought this plus $30 worth of random stuff from Amazon.

If you can't get hold of sodium citrate you can substitute or 2 teaspoons of citric acid + 2.5 teaspoons of baking soda
StewedTomaters
So you're saying I can make "nacho" blue cheese dip? This changes things.

Lab tech here. In case anyone's curious: sodium citrate is also used as a blood anticoagulant, commonly used for coagulation testing.

Researcher here. It's also used in antibody-based drug formulations, as it keeps proteins from aggregating. It's also a triprotic acid,

Is that a coincidence or is that actually how they were named? *dumb question alert
queenofmachines
The guy who supposedly came up with nachos was named Ignacio, and Nacho is a common nickname for Ignacio.
AdmJota
They were named for a guy called Nacho who invented them. It's short for Ignacio.

Coincidence
uhuhuuhuuuuAahAaaaaahAAAAAAAh
Actual proof that there is a god.
morelikeconsham
Complete coincidence. Once you remove the numbers, a TON of organic compounds have the formula NaCHO. Every fatty acid salt, baking soda,
morelikeconsham
the basic forms of most simple alcohols, hell, the formula for the most common soap is NaC12H25SO4, which you could call NaCHSO, or NaCHOS
AshleyFosf8
This gives me an idea for nacho-scented soap...
Iamhereforyourviewingpleasure
You're saying I can use baking soda and get same results? :D :D
morelikeconsham
As far as getting a formula of NaCHO? yes. Taste-wise? there may be some consequences...
Treblaine
The decision to abbreviate "Sodium" to "Na" was made long before Nacho cheese was a thing. Original Nacho cheese didn't use sodium citrate.
NotSoSmartAlek
The original name was Natrium, IIRC. Thus the abbreviation.

Pretty bold of you to assume it doesn’t cause cancer as well.

Holy shit, this is the final piece of my cheese dip I've been missing all this time!
HoneyBunchesOfStoats
here's a recipe that uses it, to give you an idea of what proportions to use: https://modernistcuisine.com/recipes/melty-queso-dip/
Leithoa
2)well, don't let it boil after you add the cheese. You can boil the roux & milk all you want.
Leithoa
Maybe useful for industrial cheese sauce but sauce to be eaten immediately doesn't need it. Just a nice mornay base & don't let it boil.
imgur1stTheory
Yeah, it stabilizes the cheese sauce. It helps for potlucks, fondues, and other grazing situations. If you are making an Alfredo for then no
Leithoa
A mornay should be fine for all of those as long as it doesn't boil. But hey, smoke if ya got 'em.

Googled. This is legit. Thanks for learning something new!

There's an episode of What's Eating Dan that talks about cheese and what makes some melt better than others. https://youtu.be/GGCA9FcgKX4

Legitimate question; is it an American thing to use the word learning as a synonym for the word teaching?
crann
Nope, but the OP learned something new, and shared it. So, they are thanking them for that sequence of events that started with learning.
HapJustHap
Imma bout to learn you how we talk out in the country.
iguessihaveto
In some rural dialects usually by older speakers, yes, but you probably won't see it in the wild except as a parody of those people.
billionyearoldcarbon
Yea mostly as a joke though. At least where I am.
TheVenerableJudgeTaintyMcPoo
Yes, but only if you haven’t been learned properly by your teachers.
5m4llP0X
I should have written "...helping me learn..." but to answer your question: I don't know. I realize now the comment is way off and awkward.
BozoThePie
it's more of an internet meme thing.

in the rural south, the proper phrase is: "thanks fer learnin' me somethin' new"

A coworker swears by it for all cheese sauces. He calls it fondue salt.

If you are lazy you can mix lemon juice and baking soda.

that might work i already use lime juice in my mornay

Well yeah sodium citrate works the same way as sodium laureth sulfate in shampoo. It is a surfacetant
