Yeast extract is a processed ingredient derived from yeast. It's made by breaking down yeast cells, typically from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and separating the cell contents from the cell walls. This process releases the naturally occurring amino acids, peptides, and nucleotides within the yeast cells. The resulting soluble extract is then concentrated and dried, often into a powder or paste form. Yeast extract is commonly used as a flavor enhancer in a variety of food products. It contributes a savory, umami taste, similar to that of meat broths or bouillon. It's found in processed foods like soups, sauces, gravies, ready meals, snack foods, and vegetarian products, where it can enhance the overall flavor profile and add depth. It can also be used in culture media for microbiological research.
