Abstract: A liquid seasoning contains edible plant ingredients and satisfies all of (1)-(5). (1) The amount of edible plant ingredient fraction A that is retained on a 1 -mesh sieve is at least 10 mass%. (2) The amount of edible plant ingredient fraction B that passes through a 1-mesh sieve and is retained on a 200-mesh sieve is 10-80 mass%. (3) The hexanal content of edible plant ingredient fraction A is 1-15000 ppb. (4) The dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) content of edible plant ingredient fraction B is 0.01-1000 ppb. (5) The proportion of the hexanal content of the edible plant ingredient fraction A to the hexanal content of the edible plant ingredient fraction B is greater than 100 mass%. In the liquid seasoning, off-flavors are inhibited from being generated in edible plant ingredients having different sizes. In addition, the liquid seasoning can be preserved for a long period of time.
