Concentrated Chicken Broth

Concentrated chicken broth is a liquid made by simmering chicken bones, meat, and vegetables, then removing most of the water. This process intensifies the chicken flavor and creates a rich base for cooking. It is often reduced further to create a more concentrated product.

Manufacturers use concentrated chicken broth to add a savory, umami flavor to a wide variety of foods. It serves as a flavor enhancer and base ingredient in soups, sauces, gravies, frozen meals, and baked goods. Its concentrated form allows for a potent flavor impact with less volume.

Concentrated chicken broth is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein and some minerals. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar broth products. Typical consumption levels are not associated with adverse health effects.
