Vegan "Chicken" Broth, Bouillon & Seasoning
This Vegan "Chicken" Broth, Bouillon & Seasoning blend uses nutritional yeast, salt, spices, and herbs to create a dry mix that mimics savory chicken broth flavors. Combined with hot water, it forms a salty, aromatic broth with subtle poultry seasoning notes, suitable for vegan cooking and seasoning needs.
Ingredients
- ½ cup nutritional yeast Any type is okay, but I highly recommend this non-fortified one by Sari.
- 1 tablespoon salt Feel free to decrease to suit your dietary needs or if you prefer less salty broth, fine sea salt
- 2 teaspoons cane sugar organic, optional
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon poultry seasoning see Notes
- ⅛ teaspoon Turmeric ground
- tiny pinch of ground ginger optional
- ½ to 1 teaspoon black pepper Amount depends on how much you enjoy black pepper, freshly ground
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 can be made at home or substituted with a store-bought blend.
- Add a few drops of mild olive oil to prepared broth for added richness, if including oils in your diet.
- Store the dry seasoning mix in the refrigerator or at room temperature; it has a long shelf life due to its dried ingredients.
