A method for manufacturing a food additive slurry composition is disclosed which comprises preparing a precursor by mixing water, a polyvalent metal compound and an organic acid having a carboxyl group, then adding to the precursor a phosphoric acid source and an alkali metal by the specific method. The obtained food additive slurry composition is not only excellent in dispersibility, dispersion stability in liquid and flavor, but low in slurry viscosity and good in handling.
