What it is

Chicken broth concentrate is a reduced form of chicken broth, made by cooking chicken parts and sometimes vegetables in water. The liquid is then strained and simmered until much of the water evaporates, resulting in a more potent, condensed chicken flavor.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add chicken broth concentrate to enhance the savory, umami flavor of foods. It is commonly used as a base for soups, sauces, gravies, and in prepared meals like frozen dinners and rice dishes to provide a rich chicken taste.

Health notes

Chicken broth concentrate is considered a conventional food ingredient and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is not typically subject to specific additive evaluations by bodies like JECFA or EFSA. The primary health consideration is its sodium content, which can contribute to overall dietary sodium intake.
