NEW PRODUCTS
Seasoning grade hydrolyzed soy protein powder HVP-FSC is a spray-dried acid HVP produced from soy protein through blending, sterilization, and controlled spray drying under the Q/BWK 0001S standard. Positioned as a light colored HVP powder with balanced umami and high amino acid availability — total nitrogen measured at 4.08 g/100g and amino nitrogen at 2.99 g/100g — this soy HVP seasoning grade base delivers consistent performance across chicken bouillon, compound seasoning powders, instant noodle sachets, soup bases, and meat flavor systems where reliable umami contribution and formulation flexibility are the priorities.
What Is Seasoning Grade Hydrolyzed Soy Protein Powder?
The term “seasoning grade” in HVP refers to a product tier positioned between basic economy-grade HVP and premium high-nitrogen HVP — offering a balance of functional nitrogen content, good solubility, light color, and cost-effectiveness for broad seasoning applications. HVP-FSC occupies this tier with measured total nitrogen of 4.08 g/100g and measured amino nitrogen of 2.99 g/100g, both well above their respective standard minimums of ≥3.0 and ≥2.0.
Unlike some HVP SKUs that start from whole soy protein and undergo primary acid hydrolysis in-house, HVP-FSC begins from acid hydrolyzed vegetable protein seasoning liquid as the raw material — the hydrolysis has already been done. The production process (blending → sterilization → spray drying → sieving → magnetic separation → metal detection) is a finishing and standardization process, not a primary hydrolysis process. This approach contributes to the product’s consistency and lighter color profile.
HVP-FSC is built for manufacturers who need an HVP seasoning base that performs reliably across large production batches — where the goal is not the absolute maximum nitrogen number but dependable umami, good solubility, stable color, and predictable behavior in dry blends and compound seasoning systems. It is the “workhorse” HVP in the Qianxuan powder HVP range: not the highest nitrogen, not the most specialty flavor, but optimized for consistency and broad applicability.
Why Light Color Matters in Seasoning Applications
A light-colored HVP powder offers practical advantages that formulators value:
- Visual neutrality — In cream-based soups, light-colored bouillon powders, and delicately colored seasoning blends, a dark HVP introduces a brownish tint that may not match the product’s visual identity. HVP-FSC’s light color keeps the seasoning base visually unobtrusive.
- Broader application range — A light-colored HVP can be used in both light and dark formulations, whereas a dark HVP is limited to applications where color is not a concern. This makes HVP-FSC a more versatile procurement choice.
- Color consistency across batches — The Q/BWK 0001S standard and controlled production from pre-hydrolyzed liquid stock contribute to batch-to-batch color stability — important for branded products where visual consistency is part of quality assurance.

Reading the data: Both total nitrogen (4.08 measured vs ≥3.0 standard) and amino nitrogen (2.99 measured vs ≥2.0 standard) significantly exceed minimum requirements. This means HVP-FSC delivers more umami and Maillard reactivity per gram than the standard specification suggests — an advantage for cost-in-use calculations. The pH of 5.0 (2% solution) places it in a mildly acidic range compatible with most savory food systems. The 9-step process with three CCPs (sterilization, sieving, metal detection) indicates a high level of quality control compared to simpler HVP production flows.
9-Step Production Process for Seasoning Grade HVP
HVP-FSC starts from pre-hydrolyzed acid HVP seasoning liquid rather than whole soy protein, making its production a finishing and standardization process:
- Raw Material Acceptance — acid HVP seasoning liquid inspected
- Blending — standardized to target specifications
- Sterilization (CCP)
- Spray Drying
- Sieving (CCP)
- Magnetic Separation
- Finished Product Packaging
- Metal Detection (CCP)
- Product Warehousing
The three CCPs (sterilization for microbial safety, sieving for particle uniformity, metal detection for foreign matter) reflect a process designed for seasoning-grade consistency rather than maximum nitrogen extraction.
Applications for Seasoning Grade HVP
① Chicken Bouillon & Seasoning Powders
Primary application. HVP-FSC’s light color and balanced amino acid profile make it a natural fit for chicken bouillon cubes, chicken powder seasonings, and poultry-flavored compound seasonings where visual neutrality matters and umami contribution adds depth without overwhelming the target chicken flavor.
② Compound Seasoning & Flavor Blends
As an HVP seasoning base in multi-component blends, HVP-FSC provides the amino acid backbone that supports other flavor ingredients. Its consistent measured nitrogen values (total N 4.08, amino N 2.99) mean formulators can rely on predictable umami contribution batch to batch.
③ Instant Noodle & Soup Base Seasoning
In instant noodle sachets, soup powders, and broth bases, HVP-FSC dissolves cleanly and contributes savory depth. The moderate salt level (measured 40.36 g/100g) needs to be factored into the total sodium target but provides a solid salt foundation for the seasoning system.
④ Meat Flavor Powders & Savory Bases
For meat-flavored seasoning powders (chicken, beef, pork), HVP-FSC supplements the amino acid profile and supports Maillard browning during processing, delivering richer roasted notes and fuller-bodied meat flavors.
⑤ Foodservice & Kitchen Seasonings
In bulk foodservice seasoning bases and kitchen-ready seasoning blends, HVP-FSC provides cost-effective umami at a consistent quality level suitable for high-volume procurement.
Why B2B Buyers Choose Seasoning Grade HVP
- Consistency at Scale: Starting from standardized pre-hydrolyzed liquid stock rather than raw soy protein gives HVP-FSC a narrower specification range batch to batch — important for manufacturers running multi-ton production lines where ingredient variation creates formulation headaches.
- Measured Values Above Standard: Total nitrogen measured at 4.08 g/100g (vs ≥3.0 standard) and amino nitrogen at 2.99 g/100g (vs ≥2.0 standard) mean the product over-delivers on the specification sheet. For cost-in-use analysis, this is real value.
- Unique Q/BWK 0001S Standard: Unlike most powder HVP SKUs using Q/HKSP 0002S, HVP-FSC operates under Q/BWK 0001S — a different product standard that reflects its seasoning-grade positioning and finishing-process production method.
- Certification Coverage: ISO 9001, ISO 22000, HACCP, and Halal certified at the manufacturing level. COA and specification sheets available per shipment and destination market.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does “seasoning grade” mean for HVP powder?
Seasoning grade HVP is positioned between basic economy-grade and premium high-nitrogen HVP. It offers a balance of functional nitrogen content (total N ≥3.0, measured 4.08 g/100g), good solubility, light color, and broad applicability across seasoning formulations — a reliable “workhorse” grade for industrial seasoning production.
How does HVP-FSC compare to basic and premium HVP?
Compared to basic-grade HVP-NS, HVP-FSC has higher nitrogen content and a lighter color. Compared to premium HVP-FSCH (high nitrogen), HVP-FSC has lower nitrogen but better cost-effectiveness for applications where maximum nitrogen is not required. It sits in the middle tier: seasoning grade.
What is the actual nitrogen content of HVP-FSC?
Total nitrogen measures 4.08 g/100g (standard ≥3.0) and amino nitrogen measures 2.99 g/100g (standard ≥2.0) — both significantly above minimum requirements. This means the product delivers more umami potential per gram than the specification sheet minimums suggest.
Why does HVP-FSC use a different product standard (Q/BWK 0001S)?
HVP-FSC is produced from pre-hydrolyzed acid HVP seasoning liquid through a finishing process (blending, sterilization, spray drying) rather than starting from whole soy protein. The Q/BWK 0001S standard reflects this production method, while most other powder HVP SKUs operate under Q/HKSP 0002S.
Is HVP-FSC suitable for light-colored food products?
Yes. HVP-FSC is specifically noted as light-colored, making it suitable for cream-based soups, light bouillon powders, and delicately colored seasoning blends where a dark HVP would introduce unwanted tinting.
What is the salt content?
Sodium chloride measures 40.36 g/100g (standard ≤50.0). This is moderate-high for HVP powder. Account for this contribution when balancing the total salt profile of your formulation.
What certifications and MOQ?
ISO 9001, ISO 22000, HACCP, Halal certified. MOQ 1 MT. 1 kg samples available. Custom packaging on request.
