What it is

Veal stock concentrate is made by simmering veal bones and meat to create a broth, then concentrating it by removing water. This process intensifies the meaty flavor and creates a thick, jelly-like substance when cooled.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use veal stock concentrate to add a rich, savory, meaty flavor (umami) to foods. It is commonly found in frozen dinners, soups, gravies, sauces, and processed meat products.

Health notes

Veal stock concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It is primarily a source of protein and minerals. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar concentrated meat products, but no specific health concerns are typically associated with its consumption at normal levels in food.

Allergen info

Veal is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
