After years of trying various store-bought bouillion cubes and refrigerated broths – some with questionable flavors and all with too much salt – we found much happiness with this recipe. It’s got a great savory flavor, no salt added, considerable amounts of protein and quite a bit of vitamin B12 (though some of the vitamin can be lost in cooking).
BROTH POWDER
makes about 30 cups of broth
1 1/3 cups nutritional yeast flakes
3 Tbs onion powder
1 Tbs vegan sugar
2 1/2 tsp. garlic granules or powder
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp finely crumbled dried sage (not powdered)
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp turmericBlend in a dry blender or food processor until powdery. Store in a dry, airtight container .
Use 2 level teaspoons per cup of boiling water. If a dish calls for broth that will be boiled or simmered in the course of cooking, I simply add the water and powder when it’s time to add the broth. It works itself out. Otherwise, I boil water first in the microwave and dissolve the powder in it, then add it to the dish.
