I don't know who needs to hear this but pre-made stock and bouillon is a scam. It is made from nutritional yeast, onion powder, salt, and dry parsley. Turmeric if it's yellow. (vegantheoryclub.org)

That's it. Eyeball it. It costs pennies to make.

All the animal products are microscopic amounts in the "beef" and "chicken" bouillon cubes, they ALL contain yeast extract, salt, onion powder as 99% of their composition.

You obviously don't need any of the animal products but you don't need any of the preservatives, sugar and corn solids either.

Be free from Big Stock and Big Bouillon who have been lying to you all this time.

We use a lot of vegetable stock; we make it at home sometimes and it's delicious but nowadays we often use stuff from a jar. Looking at the jar the first ingredient is vegetables, so better than your standard stock I suppose.

It's never occurred to me to use nooch as a substitute before when we're out, I've always just skipped the broth and had sad weak soup with water instead... This will be good for the days I'm craving soup but the fridge is empty.
