About Yeast extract
Yeast extract is a nutrient-rich food product derived from yeast cells, typically Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is created by breaking down the cell walls of yeast to release soluble components, resulting in a savory, umami-packed paste or powder. Popular in European cuisines and vegetarian diets, yeast extract is often used as a flavor enhancer in soups, spreads, and sauces. A staple in products like Marmite and Vegemite, it boasts a high concentration of B-vitamins, including B12 in fortified varieties. While it is low in fat and sugar, yeast extract is often high in sodium, which may be a concern for those managing their salt intake. Free of animal products, it’s an excellent option for vegans and vegetarians seeking nutrient support. Its rich, salty flavor makes it a versatile ingredient but should be consumed in moderation if sensitive to salt or glutamates.
