Chicken Base

I add this to all my chicken dishes for excelent flavor. Have given this product to family and friends to introduce them to it.

I'd seen this reviewed in a food magazine--where it got the highest marks, by the way!--so had to try it when I saw it available. It adds a rich chicken-y flavor I haven't really managed since I grew my own free-range hens!

SO much better than bouillon, they're not kidding--the only drawback for us is that it's a tiny bit saltier than my husband needs, but if I use a light hand it's perfect. Now I want to try the lobster base! Imagine finding things like these on Amazon...

I used to depend on the powdered bouillon for cooking--or the little cubes. No more.

For chicken bouillon (or vegetable or beef), I now use this product. "Better than Bouillon" is much richer and has a far more textured and better taste.

Something like this is often called for in recipes. This is so much preferable to the cubes or powder that I would recommend to anyone using those to give it up. There is no comparison.

Even better, of course, is using stock. But for many people, that might not be an option. Short of that, this product does well enough to work and is so much better than what I used before.

I've been using this product for quite a while now. I order it online because, unfortunately, it isn't available for me to purchase locally. It makes a really rich stock. It's easy to use just the right amount to make what you need. It's a thick paste so it's easy to measure. It's a little difficult to get off the spoon, so measure it with one you can stir in the hot/boiling water with to get off all the paste.

This is by far the best boullion/stock product I've ever used. It tastes better than the dry cubes, dry powders and canned/packaged stock products. There is less fat swimming on the top of your mixture than with the canned products as well. It tastes as close to homemade stock as I've ever seen in a packaged product. I've also used the beef as well and it is an equally good product. It also does not taste as salty as the other products.

These products are great to have on hand, and I won't let myself run out. (I'm ordering some right now) I've used the chicken and beef bases, and both are so much tastier than boullion or other powdered products. Unlike cubes, this is a paste and disolves in water immediately, with a texture that's less watery than regular broth. They need to be refrigerated once opened, but they take up hardly any space. Definitely worth a try.
