What it is

Vegetable powder is made from dried and ground vegetables. The specific vegetable used can vary widely, including carrots, beets, spinach, tomatoes, or potatoes. The drying process concentrates the vegetable's flavor, color, and nutrients.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use vegetable powder to add natural color, flavor, and nutrients to foods. It can also act as a binder or thickener. Common applications include snacks, baked goods, soups, sauces, and processed meals.

Health notes

Vegetable powders are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are a source of vitamins and minerals naturally present in the vegetables from which they are derived. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many individual vegetable-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming typical amounts found in food.

Allergen info

Vegetable powders are not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. Gluten is not typically present unless the vegetable powder is processed in a facility that also handles gluten-containing grains.
