The Ajinomoto Umami Seasoning is the original and globally recognized monosodium glutamate (MSG) product, essential for delivering the fifth basic taste—umami—to your dishes. This product comes in a convenient strip of 10 individual sachets, perfect for precise measurement or for use in smaller households.

Umami is the savory flavor found naturally in meat, fish, tomatoes, and mushrooms. Ajinomoto seamlessly enhances the natural savory notes of your ingredients, making stews, soups, rice dishes (like Jollof), and vegetable sides taste richer and more complete.

Used widely in African, Asian, and international cuisine, just a pinch of this white, crystalline powder transforms the flavor profile of your meal. The 10-sachet pack ensures freshness and makes storage simple, preventing clumping often associated with larger bulk packaging.
