Dried Vegetable & Seasoning Powder Blend

This is a blend of dried vegetables, herbs, and spices. The specific ingredients can vary widely but often include items like onion, garlic, carrot, celery, and various spices. They are dried and ground into a powder for use in food products.

Manufacturers use this blend to add flavor and savory notes to foods. It provides a complex taste profile, often described as umami or brothy. It is commonly found in soups, broths, sauces, marinades, and seasoning mixes.

Dried vegetable and seasoning blends are generally considered safe by the FDA when used as intended. They are not typically subject to specific FDA additive regulations as they are composed of common food ingredients. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many individual spices and vegetables, generally finding them safe for consumption. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming these ingredients in typical amounts found in food.
