What It Is
Rich Beef Flavor is created through thermal reaction technology-specifically, the Maillard reaction between amino acids and reducing sugars. The result is a food additive that delivers the characteristic aroma of beef.
In plain English: We take the aromatic compounds that are produced when beef is simmered, roasted, or grilled-and we recreate them using non-meat ingredients.
It contains no beef components. But it delivers the aroma of beef.
