Description
✨ Vedan Super Seasoning
Produced by Vedan International, this “Super Seasoning” is a globally recognised flavour enhancer, primarily consisting of Monosodium Glutamate (MSG). In Nigeria, it is a staple in both domestic kitchens and the foodservice industry, prized for its ability to intensify the savoury “umami” taste of traditional dishes without altering their original character.
🌟 Key Features & Culinary Benefits
Pure Umami Power: Vedan acts as a concentrated source of the fifth basic taste—umami. It amplifies the natural flavours of meats, vegetables, and spices.
High Purity: Typically produced to a purity level of over 99%, ensuring a clean, crystalline powder that dissolves instantly in broths, stews, and marinades.
Fermentation Process: It is created through a natural bacterial fermentation process using plant-based starches or molasses, similar to how yoghurt or vinegar is made.
Sodium Reduction: Because it provides a powerful savoury punch, using a small amount of Vedan can allow you to reduce your overall salt intake by up to 30% while maintaining a delicious taste.
Versatility: It is heat-stable, meaning it retains its flavour-enhancing properties during prolonged boiling, deep-frying, or baking.
📏 Common Sizes & Packaging
Vedan is available in several formats, ranging from small “sachet” sizes for a single meal to large bulk bags for commercial catering.
How to Use Vedan Like a Pro
Soups & Stews: Add approximately one teaspoon per litre of broth. It is best added towards the end of the cooking process to “brighten” the final flavour.
Jollof Rice: Use a small pinch in the rice water to enrich the savoury profile of the grains.
Fried Dishes: For 500g of meat or vegetables, use roughly half a teaspoon mixed into the seasoning rub or added during stir-frying.
Marinades: Mix a small amount into your dry rubs for beef, chicken, or goat meat before grilling to ensure a deep, “restaurant-quality” depth.
