Application:

Monosodium Glutamate, commonly known as MSG, is a sodium salt of an amino acid (L-glutamic acid).MSG is used to intensify flavors of foods. It is produced by a bacterial fermentation process with starch or molasses. MSG is not a direct taste enhancer but acomplex flavor enhancer for gravies, meats,poultry,sauces,and in other combinations.
It is also used to enhance thetaste of tobacco.
