Dear professional food technologists!
I have issues on of smell from seasoning powder due to using citric acid powder in the recipe to get the balance sour taste. It produces stronger acidic smell and volatile off smell that might be from citric degrades or reaction during the product storage! The off smell is increasing from month to month and my shelf life target is 9 months! Please advise the blending process or any solution to improve the product shelf life. Please guide me! Thank you
