If you’re looking for something to replace storebought vegetable stock powder then look no further! No worries, though, there’s no dehydration involved and no need to fill your freezer with gallons of veggie-flavored water. Try this easy vegetable stock past instead – it lasts for months, is just as convenient and it tastes so great you’ll never want to cook without it!
I am no longer stressing about ingredients lists they way I did during my slightly orthorexic phase. However, the strong taste of yeast extract or MSG still bothers me to the point that I prefer my food mostly without these ingredients. So, for the sake of our family’s taste buds, we tend to avoid buying products that have flavoring and yeast extract or MSG hiding in the small print of the label.
When looking for an alternative to vegetable stock powder, the search gave me a bit of a headache. It’s required in virtually every recipe that needs a tasty liquid and it’s nearly impossible to find a brand that doesn’t use yeast extract. So for a while, we cooked vegetable stock in large quantities and then froze it in portions. The trouble is – those portions were almost always too much or too little, even when I had some stock frozen in ice cube trays. And who wants to block their entire freezer with what is essentially a lot of veggie-flavored water?…
