Description

Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) is a flavour enhancer that is added to food to bring out the savoury taste. Glutamates occur naturally in protein foods such as tofu, sprouts, and vegetables. Free glutamates are found in foods like tomatoes, tomato paste, cheese, and mushrooms. Many natural foods that we add to dishes to enhance their taste are high in free glutamate. Glutamates are added to food to enhance its flavour. They are incorporated in the form of MSG in vegetable protein, yeast extracts, flavours, and fermented soy products such as soy sauce. Common foods that can contain added MSG include savoury items like stocks, seasonings, soups, sauces, and snacks/meals.
