What it is

Clam broth concentrate is a liquid or powder made by simmering clams and their juices, then removing most of the water. This process intensifies the natural clam flavor and creates a concentrated base for soups and other dishes.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use clam broth concentrate to add a savory, seafood flavor to foods. It is commonly found in canned soups, chowders, bisques, and seafood entrees.

Health notes

Clam broth concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of sodium, and typical consumption levels are not associated with adverse health effects. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar ingredients, but no specific regulatory limits are typically set for this type of product in the US.

Allergen info

Clam broth concentrate is derived from shellfish, which is one of the 9 major allergens recognized by the FDA.
