Yondu

Q: Your listing states msg free. isn't yeast extract msg??

Thanks for your question and your interest in Yondu! The yeast extract that is in Yondu is made from the same kinds of yeast that is used for making beer and bread (you might even find yeast extract sold as the sandwich spread known as Vegemite or Marmite). Yeast extract naturally contains glutamates, an amino acid that is found in many foods and is contained in 5-15% of all dietary proteins. MSG is chemically synthesized versions of pure glutamate. As yeast extract is naturally occurring, the amount of glutamate is much less than in MSG. To quote from healthline.com “The main difference between yeast extract and MSG in foods comes down to flavor. MSG doesn’t have a flavor. Instead, it acts as a flavor enhancer, like salt. Yeast extract adds flavor to foods, like a spice.” Hope this helps!

Q: Is it a liquid or powder? Good fish sauce substitute?

Yondu is a liquid seasoning that adds a lot of delicious & savory umami flavors to your dishes. In this way, it is quite similar to fish sauce (a fermented anchovy-based sauce used frequently in Southeast Asian cooking). Yondu is also vegan and made from fermented soybeans and vegetables broths. It has a bit more of a delicate flavor and doesn’t overwhelm like fish sauce might. Try using Yondu in any recipe that calls for fish sauce in a 1:1 ratio, and always season to taste and adjust at the end to your preference. Hope this helps!

Q: Is this the same as the Korean yondu in the green package?

Hi Aurora, both the Korean and the U.S. version of Yondu are produced by Sempio Foods Company. The U.S. version has a slightly more subtle "soy" flavor, making it particularly suitable for use in all types of cuisine (not only Korean dishes). The U.S. version is also a more premium product and is organic and gluten-free. Thanks for your interest!

Q: Is this in a glass bottle?

The smaller sizes (5.1 Fl oz & 9.3 Fl oz) are in glass bottles and the large size (28 Fl oz) is in a PET plastic bottle.
