Food-Grade Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein HVP with Umami Flavor Enhancer and Water Soluble Properties for Food Manufacturing
Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (HVP) is a food-grade savory flavoring base made by controlled hydrolysis of plant proteins. Presented as a brown, free-flowing powder, it delivers deep umami with a clean, meat-like finish. It is widely used to round out flavor and improve mouthfeel in soups, sauces, snacks and plant-based foods.
- Rich savory taste that builds flavor depth and body
- Works with MSG to cut usage while keeping balanced umami
- Excellent flowability for smooth blending in dry and liquid systems
- Strict control of 3-MCPD, heavy metals and microbes for global compliance
