Chicken essence is also a condiment in the kitchen. Many people think that MSG is unhealthy, so they switch to chicken essence. However, some people think that since chicken essence has the word chicken, it must have something to do with chicken and it is good for our health. It is considered to be extracted from chicken soup or chicken, so it is considered to be healthier than monosodium glutamate. In fact, sodium glutamate is also one of the main raw materials of chicken essence. Although monosodium glutamate is sodium glutamate, there are some substances such as sugar and starch in chicken essence besides sodium glutamate, but it does not contain chicken and other ingredients and will not be extracted from chicken soup. At this time, if you mistakenly believe some statements, you may think that chicken essence is safer and even healthier than monosodium glutamate. In fact, we should also understand that the advantage of chicken essence lies not in the single taste of monosodium glutamate, but also in the flavoring effect, which is more suitable for cooking.
