What it is
Organic chicken base is a concentrated flavoring product made from cooked organic chicken, often including chicken fat and drippings. It is typically produced by simmering chicken parts and bones with vegetables and seasonings, then reducing the liquid to create a rich, savory base.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add organic chicken base to enhance the savory, chicken-like flavor in a variety of foods. It is commonly found in soups, broths, sauces, gravies, marinades, and frozen meals where a deep chicken taste is desired.
Health notes
Organic chicken base is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of protein and can contribute to the sodium content of foods. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar chicken-derived flavorings. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming typical amounts in food.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. However, always check the ingredient list for potential cross-contamination or other added allergens.
