Features & Application
Monosodium glutamate is colorless to white prismatic crystal or white crystalline powder, and its aqueous solution is colorless. It has basically no special odor and has a strong meat umami taste, with a slight sweet or salty taste.

2. When it is used as a flavoring agent, the general dosage is 0.2% to 0.5%. In addition to being used alone, it is advisable to form a compound seasoning with nucleic acid seasonings such as ribonucleotides and sodium inosinate to improve the effect.
