Vegan "Chicken" Broth, Bouillon & Seasoning

Finn Russell

Report

Now you don't have to track down specialty vegan chicken broth or bouillon products to make your favorite recipes. This combination of simple ingredients tastes so good you may find yourself sipping on bowlfuls of chicken-less broth! Of course, it's great in other recipes, too. Try it in Chick-un Noodle Soup, Vegan Rice-A-Roni and Seitan Turkey.Yield: makes about ⅔ cup powder. Use approx. 2 teaspoons powder per 1 cup hot water for broth.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon fine sea salt Feel free to decrease to suit your dietary needs or if you prefer less salty broth.
2 teaspoons organic cane sugar, optional
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon poultry seasoning see Notes
⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric
tiny pinch of ground ginger, optional
½ to 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Amount depends on how much you enjoy black pepper.

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a bowl or lidded jar, and whisk to combine. If the nutritional yeast you're using contains large flakes you may want to pulse the mixture in a blender for a more powdered texture.
Always whisk or shake before using so that the flavors are well combined. To make broth, use approximately 2 teaspoons powder per 1 cup of hot water (this creates a fairly salty broth). Refer to the post above for more ideas and ways to use this powder.

Notes

Poultry seasoning is easy to make at home, or go with a store-bought blend.
Preparation tip:
If you include oil in your diet, try adding just a few drops of a mild-tasting olive oil to the broth once it's prepared (not to the powder). Oil contributes a richness that would normally be found in chicken stock and broth.
Storage:
Since this broth powder is made with all dried ingredients it has a very long shelf life. I like to store it in the refrigerator, but it will also be fine at room temperature.
