Q: What is Clean Worcestershire Powder?
A: Clean Worcestershire Powder is a bold, tangy and deeply savory seasoning inspired by traditional Worcestershire sauce. We rebuilt the classic flavor from the ground up using recognizable ingredients like tamarind, molasses, tomato, mushroom, vinegar, onion, garlic and spices.
Q: How is Worcestershire powder different from Worcestershire sauce?
A: Worcestershire powder delivers the savory, tangy flavor of Worcestershire in a convenient dry form. Unlike a bottled sauce, it can be sprinkled directly onto food, blended into dry seasonings or mixed with water for recipes that need liquid Worcestershire.
Q: Why did you make Worcestershire into a powder?
A: We make our products into powders whenever possible because they are shelf stable, versatile and easy to keep on hand. The dry format lets you use only what you need, keeps extra liquid out of dry rubs and seasoning blends, and can be turned into a sauce whenever a recipe calls for one.
Q: How do I turn it into liquid Worcestershire?
A: Mix 1 tablespoon of Clean Worcestershire Powder with 1 tablespoon of water. Stir until thoroughly combined, then use it in marinades, sauces, gravies or other recipes calling for Worcestershire sauce.
Q: Can I use it without adding water?
A: Absolutely. Sprinkle it directly onto meats, vegetables, potatoes, popcorn and snacks, or mix it into burgers, meatloaf, chili, soups, casseroles, gravies and dry rubs.
Q: Can I substitute it for liquid Worcestershire in a recipe?
A: Yes. Mix equal parts Clean Worcestershire Powder and water, then measure the prepared mixture according to your recipe. Because recipes and personal preferences vary, you can adjust the concentration to taste.
Q: What does Clean Worcestershire Powder taste like?
A: It has the bold, tangy, slightly sweet and deeply savory flavor associated with traditional Worcestershire. Tamarind and vinegar provide brightness, molasses adds richness, and mushroom and tomato create savory depth without anchovies or soy ingredients.
Q: Is it spicy?
A: It contains a small amount of chili powder for balance, but it is not intended to be a hot seasoning. Its primary flavor is tangy, rich and savory rather than spicy.
Q: What foods can I use it on?
A: It is delicious on burgers, steaks, roasts, chicken, pork, meatloaf, roasted vegetables and potatoes. It can also be added to chili, soups, stews, casseroles, gravies, marinades, barbecue sauces, snack mixes and Bloody Marys.
Q: Can I use it in a dry rub?
A: Yes. The powdered format is especially useful in dry rubs because it adds Worcestershire flavor without introducing extra moisture. Mix it with your favorite herbs and spices, then apply it to beef, pork, chicken or vegetables before cooking.
Q: Can I add it directly to ground beef?

A: No. Clean Worcestershire Powder contains no corn syrup or high-fructose corn syrup.

A: No. Its rich color and flavor come from the ingredients themselves, including tamarind, molasses, tomato, mushroom, vinegar and spices.
Q: Does it contain anti-caking agents?
A: No anti-caking agents are added. Because of this, natural clumping may occasionally occur. Simply shake the bottle or gently break apart any clumps before using.

Q: What is the shelf life?
A: Clean Worcestershire Powder has a two-year shelf life when stored properly. Refer to the best-by date printed on the package.
Q: Why is there sugar in Worcestershire Powder?
A: A touch of sweetness is an important part of traditional Worcestershire flavor because it balances the tanginess of tamarind and vinegar. Our flavor comes from molasses powder, tomato powder and organic coconut sugar rather than corn syrup or high-fructose corn syrup.
Q: Where did the idea for this product come from?
A: Clean Worcestershire Powder was born while we were developing our Clean Au Jus. Worcestershire was essential to achieving the rich, savory flavor we wanted, but we couldn’t find a powder clean enough to meet our standards. So, like many of our products, we created the solution ourselves from the ground up.
