Provesta® 120 is an autolysed yeast product specifically
designed for the replacement of monosodium glutamate in food
formulations. Provesta® 120 provides the “umami” or fifth flavour in foods. Provesta®
120 is produced from a primary yeast grown in a continuous fermentation
system. This assures the consistent flavour and uniformity of Provesta® 120.
Applications
Meat, poultry, soups, stews, gravies, snack and seasoning mixes are
examples of food systems that can benefit from the flavour enhancement
effects of Provesta® 120. Provesta® 120 is useful for improving flavours of foods containing chicken or pork. Replaces MSG at a ratio of 1:1 (Provesta® 120:MSG).
Benefits
Provesta® 120 heightens flavur impact by contributing a similar flavour profile and umami feeling factors as contributed by MSG. Provesta®
120 masks the bitterness of potassium chloride in reduced sodium foods
and is a clean label alternative to consumer avoided flavour
potentiators.
