Description
Beef broth powder is a powdered seasoning used to enhance the flavor of culinary preparations, especially soups, stews, sauces, and rice. It is made from concentrated beef extracts, along with salt, spices, and other flavor enhancers.
This ingredient originated from the need to simplify and speed up the preparation of traditional homemade broths, offering a practical and quick alternative without losing the characteristic flavor of beef.
Among its properties, it stands out for its ability to provide an intense, umami flavor to dishes, in addition to being easy to store and having a long shelf life. However, it is important to consider its potential sodium content, so it is recommended to use it in moderation.
In different Latin American countries, beef broth powder may also be known as powdered beef bouillon, crushed beef bouillon cube, concentrated meat broth, or simply concentrated broth.
