Vegan chicken bullion

Below is a recipe I’ve been using for a while now that I lifted from this old reddit thread. I’ve found it works great as an addition to most soups, sauces or gravies either alone or as a flavor booster (honestly, nutritional yeast by itself will do that to a large extent and is seriously underutilized).

Vegan Chicken Bouillon Based on this recipe

1 cup nutritional yeast flakes
3 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 tablespoon celery seeds
1 tablespoon table salt
1 teaspoon Old Bay (or paprika)*
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon turmeric powder

Blend all ingredients to a powder. Dissolve 2 teaspoons per cup of boiling water, then adjust ingredients and ratios to taste. Poultry Seasoning can also be a good addition. Store in an airtight container.

*I’m not a fan of paprika, because it always seems to disappear when combined with other ingredients. Old Bay, on the other hand, complements whatever it’s added to without overpowering.

Bad-faith carnist rhetoric & anti-veganism are not allowed, as this is not a space to debate the merits of veganism. Anyone is welcome here, however, and so good-faith efforts to ask questions about veganism may be given their own weekly stickied post in the future.

No brigading, either off-site or on-site. An incitement to brigade includes two elements: a call to disruptive action and a specific direction outside of this community in which to take that action. Exceptions include:

Calls to boycott.
Calls to in-person protest of a government, high-profile individual, or company/organization.
Votes provided they have a sufficiently broad target audience or provably effective controls against vote brigading.

For the Brits, marmite is the key. I throw it in everything, even meaty dishes.

Those little microbes pack a punch! Other yeast extract such as vegemite and promite, or fermented foods such as soy sauce and miso, will work similarity. When it comes down to it, we’re just looking to add glutamates in one form or another.
