Generally speaking, white means that the monosodium glutamate content of chicken essence is higher than that of chicken powder, and the "other nitrogen" content of chicken powder is higher than that of chicken essence. In terms of function and function, chicken essence is mainly used for flavoring, which requires high sodium glutamate (chicken essence is 35%, while chicken powder is 10%) and is mostly used for cooking; However, chicken powder is mainly used to increase the umami flavor, with more flavor components (the standard of chicken powder is mainly embodied in "other nitrogen", which is 0.4%, which is higher than the standard of 0.2% of chicken essence).

As for chicken juice, it is a juicy compound seasoning with chicken and chicken bones or its concentrated extract as raw materials. Huang Zhenhua, a senior chef of Cantonese cuisine, said that its taste is equivalent to the soup cooked by the chef with an old hen.

As for chicken powder, its product is defined as compound seasoning, which is made of edible salt, monosodium glutamate, chicken, chicken bone powder or its concentrated extract, disodium nucleotide and other auxiliary materials, with or without spices or edible spices, and has a strong chicken flavor and delicious taste. The "chicken powder" without chicken ingredients cannot be called chicken powder, but can only be called "chicken flavor seasoning".
