Standard Type

The standard type product is an “autolyzed” yeast extract made by breaking down fresh yeast with the enzymes contained in the yeast itself. It has a unique aroma, rich flavor, and sophisticated umami. The abundance of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids contained in yeast extract promote fermentation by microorganisms, so it can also be used as a culture medium, as well.
