Product Description
Introduction (Monosodium Glutamate CAS No. 142-47-2)
Monosodium Glutamate, also known as sodium glutamate, which becomes sodium pyroglutamate after heating. MSG is a very common condiment in daily life. It has been listed as a safe category by the World Health Organization, the FDA and the Chinese Dietary Guidelines.
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) is used in cooking as a flavor enhancer with an umami taste that intensifies the meaty, savory flavor of food, as naturally occurring glutamate does in foods such as stews and meat soups. Sodium glutamate has a strong umami taste of meat, and the umami taste can still be felt when MSG (monosodium glutamate) is diluted to 3000 times with water. It is widely used in household cooking, catering industry, food processing industry, etc.
