Xian/Umami Taste


"Xianness/ Xian taste"[鲜:/∫æn/] is created by Chinese people thousands of years ago. It is composed of Chinese character “鱼”[fish] and “羊”[lamb] which expresses the pleasant and delicious taste brought by these two foods. Xian is equivalent to the Japanese concept of "Umami".

Xianness is imparted by numerous natural substances like nucleotides, amino acids, rich peptides, I+G, etc., which rounds off all tastes, balances off-notes while maintaining the flavor intensity of low salt products.

Since 2015, Angel Yeast launched a series of Angeoboost products. Enriched with amino acids, peptides, nucleotides and other substances with strong Xian taste properties, this kind of product works great to improve flavor, mask off-notes, replace MSG, and reduce salt.

Nowadays, more and more food manufacturers are craving for higher demand for pure and natural Xian taste YE, such as "Low Salt", "Additive-free" sauces, vinegar and so on. Thanks to its pleasant taste, enhanced mouth-filling and natural property, Xian Taste YE is now widely used by food manufacturers and become mainstream of Xian taste source products in the market.
