1, monosodium glutamate in chicken essence accounts for about 40%, and does not contain ingredients extracted from chicken and chicken bones. The flavor-presenting substances are mainly sodium glutamate and flavor-presenting nucleotides, while chicken powder contains substances extracted from chicken, which have both the flavor of sodium glutamate and nucleotides and the flavor of chicken and chicken bones, and are relatively more fragrant.
