What it is

Beef powder is made from cooked beef that has been dried and ground into a powder. The process typically involves removing moisture to create a shelf-stable ingredient that retains a beef flavor.

International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar ingredients, but specific evaluations for beef powder may vary. At typical consumption levels, it does not pose health risks.
