All about Citric Acid:

• A super-concentrated sour powder that you can add to literally any dish. Since its only noticeable flavor is “sour,” citric acid lets you tweak the acidity levels in a dish without overpowering any of the other flavors, which is always a risk with something like apple cider vinegar or lemon juice (source).
• It’s also a food-safe pH adjuster. Adding the smallest pinch to cake batter or biscuit dough enhances the leavening power of baking soda (source).
• Slows oxidation significantly, so it’ll keep your fruit salad or guacamole from browning too quickly. You can even use a citric acid solution to descale your coffee maker and clean hard water residue from your glassware—roughly a tablespoon per gallon of water should do the trick. Basically, whenever you need an acid that’s stronger than vinegar but still safe to eat, citric acid is there to help (source).
