Turkey Meat Powder

Turkey meat powder is made from cooked turkey meat that has been dried and ground into a powder. This process concentrates the flavor and nutrients of the turkey. It is used to add a savory, meaty taste to foods.

Manufacturers add turkey meat powder to provide a concentrated turkey flavor and umami taste. It is commonly found in seasoning mixes, dry soup and gravy mixes, marinades, and processed meat products. It helps to enhance the overall savory profile of these foods.

Turkey meat powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of protein and other nutrients found in turkey meat. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have not specifically evaluated turkey meat powder as a distinct additive, but its components are well-understood. At typical consumption levels, it does not pose health risks.
