Disodium ribonucleotides

Disodium 5'-ribonucleotides, E number E635, are flavor enhancers which are synergistic with glutamates in creating the taste of umami. They are a mixture of disodium inosinate (IMP) and disodium guanylate (GMP) and are often used where a food already contains natural glutamates (as in meat extract) or added monosodium glutamate.

A mixture of 98% monosodium glutamate and 2% E635 has four times the flavor enhancing power of monosodium glutamate alone.
