Which is safer, monosodium glutamate or chicken essence

Introduction: what's the difference between chicken essence and monosodium glutamate? Many consumers think that monosodium glutamate is a chemical compound It's not only nutritious, but also harmful to the body if you eat it often Chicken essence is different Which is safer, monosodium glutamate or chicken essence? Someone asked monosodium glutamate and chicken essence which is more safe? The following hundred hundred safety net for you to introduce, hope these can help you Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a kind of cooking raw material of fresh seasoning It is a kind of powder or crystal seasoning which is made of wheat, soybean and other raw materials with more protein by hydrolysis or starch as raw materials and processed by fermentation Its main component is sodium glutamate, but also contains a small amount of salt, water, fat, sugar, iron, phosphorus and other substances Monosodium glutamate is easy to dissolve in water and tastes very delicious It is still fresh when it is dissolved in 3000 times of water The best dissolving temperature is 70-90 ℃ In general cooking and processing conditions, monosodium glutamate is relatively stable, but when it is in high temperature for a long time, the monosodium glutamate in monosodium glutamate is easy to change into sodium pyroglutamate, which does not show fresh taste and has slight toxicity; in alkaline or strong acid solution, it is easy to precipitate or difficult to dissolve, and its fresh taste is not obvious and even disappears Chicken essence contains 40% monosodium glutamate, which is mainly made of chicken, chicken bone or its concentrated extract Its main components are monosodium glutamate (sodium glutamate) and salt Among them, monosodium glutamate accounts for about 40% of the total components, and salt accounts for more than 10% In addition, sugar, chicken or chicken bone meal, spices, inosine monophosphate, guanylate, chicken flavor, starch and other substances are combined The main reason why chicken essence tastes fresh is the function of monosodium glutamate In addition, inosinic acid and guanosine acid are both fresheners, which also have the effect of seasoning Moreover, they can make chicken essence taste softer, taste more mellow, plump and full-bodied As for the realistic taste of chicken in chicken essence, it mainly comes from chicken and chicken bone meal, which are extracted from fresh chicken and chicken bone The use of chicken flavor can also make chicken flavor rich The action of starch is to make chicken essence granular or powdery Generally speaking, chicken essence is mainly granulated The composition of chicken essence is more complex than monosodium glutamate, and its nutrition is more comprehensive But like monosodium glutamate, chicken essence is only used as freshening and seasoning purposes in food, and the dosage only accounts for a few thousandths of food, so it is of little significance to compare their nutritional value Moreover, according to the survey, it is found that the protein content of different brands of chicken essence in the market is not the same, which is mainly related to the content of their chicken powder or chicken bone powder, and even some products are called "chicken essence", but they do not contain chicken ingredients Chicken essence is also afraid of high temperature, many people dare not eat MSG, mainly worried that it will produce certain carcinogens But in fact, in general, monosodium glutamate is completely safe, you can eat it at ease, just don't heat it to more than 120 ℃, for example, put monosodium glutamate into the taste before frying fish and meat, or the sodium glutamate in it will lose water and become sodium pyroglutamate, producing carcinogens, but in general, the temperature of cooking won't exceed 120 ℃ The chicken essence also contains some sodium glutamate, so it should not be heated for a long time like monosodium glutamate Not only that, the hydrolyzed vegetable protein and hydrolyzed animal protein contained in chicken essence are also not resistant to high temperature, so chicken essence should also be added before frying and cooking, not put too early Many people ask that chicken essence is harmful to human body? In fact, chicken essence and monosodium glutamate are the same There is no difference between good and bad Chicken essence and monosodium glutamate are harmless to human beings In addition, chicken essence contains sodium glutamate, which induces the secretion of digestive fluid and promotes the digestion and absorption of food However, chicken essence cannot be eaten more Eating more is harmful Now the country has a food safety detector, which can detect 50 parameters in food on site More knowledge of food additives is in Baibai safety net Editor in charge: he xianrob
