What it is

Oleoresin celery is a concentrated extract derived from celery seeds. It is produced by extracting volatile oils and non-volatile resinous compounds from the seeds using a solvent, which is then removed to leave a thick, oily liquid.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use oleoresin celery as a natural flavoring agent to impart a celery taste to foods. It is commonly found in savory products like soups, sauces, processed meats, and snack foods where a distinct celery flavor is desired.

Health notes

In the U.S., oleoresin celery is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring. It is used in very small amounts in food, and no adverse health effects are expected at typical consumption levels. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar flavoring substances.

Allergen info

Oleoresin celery is not derived from any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
