Ingredients
- 1 cup Nutritional Yeast
- 1/4 cup sea salt
- 1/4 cup onion powder
- 1/4 cup garlic powder
- 1/4 cup dried parsley leaves
- 1 Tablespoon rubbed sage
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 2 teaspoons dried rosemary
- 2 teaspoons turmeric powder
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 bay leaf (or 1/4 teaspoon ground bay leaf)
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a high speed blender or smoothie blender pitcher.
- Cover the blender jar tightly with a lid and then blend to create a powder of even consistency and to fully incorporate and distribute all the ingredients.
- Leave the lid on the blender jar for a minute or two. This will allow the powder to settle. And, you won’t get a big puff of bouillon out into your kitchen.
- Seal the chicken bouillon powder into an airtight container. Store it in a cool dark cupboard with other herbs, spices and seasoning blends.
- To create chicken broth with the bouillon, dissolve 2 teaspoon in 1 cup of hot water. Substitute in recipes calling for bouillon in a 2 to 1 ratio. Two teaspoons of homemade bouillon for 1 teaspoon of commercial bouillon.
