Bouillon Powder/Cube

Bouillon Powder/Cube is a concentrated seasoning product (powder or cube) used worldwide to add savory, umami flavor to soups, sauces and stews. It is typically made from salt, flavor extracts, fats and dehydrated meat or vegetable components and is used sparingly for seasoning. Nutritionally, bouillon is very high in sodium — 16.5g per 100g — so a small amount goes a long way; it can also provide traces of minerals like potassium and selenium. Because it’s a concentrated flavoring rather than a bulk food, it’s best used in moderation or swapped for lower-sodium stock options when you need to limit salt intake.
