Vegetable Stock Options
Text
Fresh vegetable stock is always preferred over powdered alternatives but, in a pinch, you can use a powder or boullion cube. If using a vegetable stock base substitute, make sure that it doesn't contain MSG.
The best vegetable stock to use is one that is homemade because it is all natural and contains low amounts of sodium (if any). However, if you don’t have any vegetable stock on hand, there are several ready-made, quality stocks on the market. These usually come in bouillon cubes, powdered form or concentrated liquid form. Just be sure to check the labels and try to find products that do not contain any MSG or high amounts of sodium.
