Copied from the package as of the date checked. The label is shown in Japanese as printed; tap an ingredient to see its English name and role. The links in the table below lead to our Ingredients A–Z and food additive database. The name on the label is “ガラスープの素” (chicken bone broth base), and the official product name is “やさしい味わいのガラスープ” (mild-flavored chicken bone broth). There is no photo of the front, so what is printed on the front has not been checked. The ingredient list on the official page is the same as on the label. As a guide per serving, the label says 2 teaspoons in 200 ml of water for soup, and 1 to 2 teaspoons per 200 g of rice for fried rice (1 teaspoon = 2.5 g).
