What it is

Dried lemon juice concentrate is made by removing water from lemon juice. This process intensifies the lemon flavor and creates a shelf-stable product that is easier to transport and store than liquid lemon juice.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use dried lemon juice concentrate to add a tart, citrus flavor to foods. It is often found in baked goods, beverages, candies, and savory dishes like marinades and salad dressings.

Health notes

Dried lemon juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of vitamin C, though the amount can vary depending on processing. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated it. No significant health concerns are associated with its typical consumption.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen.
