A spray dried myrosinase/ascorbate mixture is formed from the steps comprising: providing a source of myrosinase, adding ascorbate to the source of myrosinase, heating the source of myrosinase to a temperature of about 104° F. (about 40° C.) or higher, and spray drying the myrosinase/ascorbate mixture. The spray dried myrosinase/ascorbate mixture may be used to prepare isothiocyanates. The spray dried myrosinase/ascorbate mixture may also be mixed with glucoraphanin and used in an activated tablet or capsule.
