What it is

Beef broth flavor is a flavoring agent made from beef broth, which is typically created by simmering beef bones and meat with vegetables and seasonings. The broth is then concentrated and processed to create a powder or liquid that imparts a savory, beefy taste to foods.

Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavorings, and they are considered safe at typical consumption levels. There are no widespread health concerns associated with the typical use of beef broth flavor in foods.

Allergen info

Beef broth flavor is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten unless added during processing.
