Understanding Marmite: What Is It?
Marmite is a thick, dark brown spread made from yeast extract, a by-product of beer brewing. It is rich in B vitamins and has a strong, salty flavor that is often described as an acquired taste. Originating in the United Kingdom, Marmite has become a staple in many British households, typically spread thinly on toast or used to add umami depth to various dishes.
