I don't know who needs to hear this but pre-made stock and bouillon is a scam. It is made from nutritional yeast, onion powder, salt, and dry parsley. Turmeric if it's yellow. (vegantheoryclub.org)

That's it. Eyeball it. It costs pennies to make.

All the animal products are microscopic amounts in the "beef" and "chicken" bouillon cubes, they ALL contain yeast extract, salt, onion powder as 99% of their composition.

You obviously don't need any of the animal products but you don't need any of the preservatives, sugar and corn solids either.

Be free from Big Stock and Big Bouillon who have been lying to you all this time.

Marmite (another yeast based thing, I think) tastes as good or better than most beef bullion I've tried, a good replacement if you need a beefy flavor!

I prefer miso, personally

I love miso and have really been enjoying Korean Doenjang recently

Coupled with tomato and or tomato paste makes for a very beefy kind of broth

Yes! Marmite and vegemite make great broths and to me taste like a combination of nutritional yeast and soy sauce
