Turkey Broth

Turkey broth is a liquid made by simmering turkey bones, meat, and sometimes vegetables in water. It is often seasoned with herbs and spices. The process extracts flavor and nutrients from the turkey, creating a savory base for many dishes.

Manufacturers use turkey broth as a flavor enhancer and a liquid base in a variety of foods. It adds a rich, savory taste to soups, stews, sauces, gravies, and processed meats like deli turkey. It can also be used to add moisture and flavor to rice and other grains.

Turkey broth is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of protein and some minerals. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated broth and similar products. While generally considered safe, high sodium content can be a concern for some individuals.
