Mushroom Extract

pexels-polina-tankilevitch-5848438_edited.png

Mushroom extract is a clean-label, powdered flavour enhancer that is 100% derived from white button mushrooms. White button mushrooms naturally contain glutamate and ribonucleotides such as inosinate and guanylate, which, when combined, work together to naturally enhance depth of flavour. 

Mushroom extract can be added to dishes to provide a full-bodied flavour or to significantly reduce sodium levels. With a longer-lasting umami flavour than artificial taste enhancers, mushroom extract is the ideal clean-label ingredient for various food applications. ​As a natural flavour enhancer, it supports salt and sugar reduction by boosting savoury flavour notes. It also helps mask off-notes in plant-based proteins, making it ideal for high-protein and alternative meat applications.
