Vegetable Broth Mix Recipe

This Vegetable Broth Mix Recipe has none of the additives of store bought cubes and packets.

Ingredients

• 4 tbsp celery powder made from dehydrated celery & leaves
• 4 tbsp dried parsley flakes
• 2 tbsp garlic powder
• 2 tbsp salt substitute (Trader Joe’s 21 Salute)
• 2 tbsp ground summer savory
• 2 tsp dried marjoram
• 2 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp pepper
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp ground sage

Directions

1. Combine all in a small bowl. Store in glass or plastic container with a tight fitting lid. Stir or shake occasionally before use to redistribute ingredients.

2. Use 1 tsp mix plus one cup of water to make 1 cup of broth in a recipe. You may substitute this for chicken broth/bouillon in recipes as well. 1 tsp is the equivalent of 1 bouillon cube.

Hint from Eva:
I don’t have a food dehydrator so I sliced up the upper third of a bunch of celery, washed it, dried it and thinly sliced it. I spread it out on paper toweling and microwaved it 3-4 times at 30 second intervals, stirring it up and redistributing it each time. I spread all the bits and leaves out on clean, dry paper toweling on a baking sheet and set the whole thing in the cold oven to continue drying where it would be undisturbed. After 24 hours, I picked through it all taking out any of the rubbery bits or pieces that I thought were not fully dried. I pulverized the rest of the celery into a powder in my little grinder. I had more than 4 tablespoons so I put the remainder of the dried powder into a jar to add to soups, stews, dumplings, mashed potatoes or to have on hand to make more of this mix. The not so dried pieces went back onto the baking sheet to continue drying.
