What it is

Beef bone extract is made by simmering beef bones and connective tissues in water. This process extracts collagen, minerals, and other compounds from the bones, creating a concentrated liquid or paste. It is often used to add a savory, meaty flavor and body to foods.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add beef bone extract to enhance the savory, umami flavor and provide a richer mouthfeel in foods. It is commonly found in soups, broths, gravies, sauces, and seasoned noodle dishes.

Health notes

At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.
