What it is
Vegetable broth is a savory liquid made by simmering vegetables, herbs, and spices in water. Common vegetables include onions, carrots, celery, and leeks. It is often strained to create a clear liquid base for soups and other dishes.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use vegetable broth as a flavorful liquid base in a wide variety of savory foods. It adds depth and complexity to the taste of soups, stews, sauces, grains, and frozen meals. It can also be used to rehydrate dried foods.
Health notes
Vegetable broth is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is primarily composed of water and vegetables, which are part of a healthy diet. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many common broth ingredients, but specific evaluations for 'vegetable broth water' as a single entity are not typically detailed. It is not associated with significant health controversies at typical consumption levels.
Allergen info
Vegetable broth is not a major allergen. However, depending on the specific vegetables and seasonings used, it could potentially contain allergens like celery or soy if not carefully prepared. It does not contain gluten unless wheat-based ingredients are added.
