Organic Vegetable Juice Concentrates

This ingredient is made from vegetables that have been processed to remove most of their water content, resulting in a concentrated liquid or powder. The concentration process intensifies the natural flavors and colors of the vegetables. It is often used to add a robust vegetable taste and color to foods.

Manufacturers use concentrated vegetable juices to enhance the flavor and color of a wide variety of foods, especially savory products. It can add depth to broths, soups, sauces, and seasonings. It is also used in marinades and spice blends to impart a vegetable essence.

Organic vegetable juice concentrates are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used in food. They are a source of vitamins and minerals naturally present in the vegetables from which they are derived. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar vegetable-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming these concentrates at typical dietary levels.
