Frontier Co-op Vegetable Flavored Broth Powder, 1-Pound Bulk, Low Sodium, Onion, Garlic, Carrot, Basil, Turmeric, Celery Seed

This stuff makes a very tasty, low sodium broth. You can drink this straight instead of high salt bullion. I use it as a liquid intake while cleansing and dieting. It is not bland like liquid vegetable broth you get off the shelf and of course the powder does not spoil like a home made liquid broth would. You simply make as much as you need. The package contains 4 cups of powder and when water is added, the green herbs expand.

I used this and Bromelain powder to make a tenderizer. It has a nice taste and can be used as salt or as a mild soup/broth base.

Being vegan and salt sensitive, I have tried to find a vegetable broth in the supermarkets that not only has flavor, and does not have hundreds of milligrams of salt. Well, I couldn't. In fact most broths taste terrible and have upwards of 550 mg of salt per serving, which is usually four serving per container, and that is a lot of salt! Salt is a CHEEP flavor enhancement that so many companies use, and is put into almost everything you buy, even Ice cream. Also, packaged supermarket broth only comes in one quart liquid form, so you either have to use it all at once, or store it and hope it doesn't go bad. There is an alternative to this and it is "Frontier Co-op Vegetable Flavored Broth Powder." Made only of pure and natural ingredients with no chemicals. It is simple to use, takes minutes to make, only make as much as you need, and is fresh every time. Best of all there is just 20 mg of salt per serving, yes you heard that right, only 20 milligrams, and tastes absolutely delicious. I will never go back to the store bought liquid stuff. I highly recommend this company and its incredible product.

Simmer 1-2 minutes and serve-------------------Personally, I like it. I dont see a need for corn syrup as it contributes to the "added sugars". There is some naturally occurring sugar from the vegetables used. I think it has a very good taste-- vegetable with an umami taste (probably from yeast extract). Loads of green flecks from parsley, basil, spinach. I love that it is so low in sodium. I can drink it plain, or I can sprinkle a little of my Redmond Real Sea Salt to give it the salty flavor I want but still keep it low in comparison to other broths and bouillons.I acquired this early 12/2021, and it has a best by date of July 2023.I like Frontier products, and really have no issue with this. I dont rate on price, but I do comment at times. There are 25 (2 tbs) servings, and at current price of $12.87, that makes it $0.51 per serving. That is about same price as another brand I use. So I think within reason for my budget and values.What I do rate on is quality, my overall thoughts/experience, and how well the product matches up to the product description. So my 1 star deduction is really targeted toward the fact that the product listing does not include an easy to see ingredient list (it is there just look for it) and no nutritional panel for viewing. I took a big chance on this "LOW sodium" broth. But I wasnt sure what to expect. By labeling laws, anything labeled as "low sodium" cant have any more than 50 mg per serving. But how much a company considers a serving may change what is reasonable. Here, the 2 tbs serving size is meant to be used in 1 cup of water. That is reasonable. So I was willing to chance this, hoped it was following the labeling mandates, and used a reasonable serving. It totally fits that, since it is truly low sodium at just 10 mg (and is to be added into 1 cup of water). However, why not say this? It can only help them by helping others-- and is a very simple fix. Just type in the words, "10 mg per 2 tbs serving". Done.

very nice

For individuals who are watching their salt intake, vegetable bouillon and broth powders are a practical no-no. Bouillon powders, in general, are oozing in salt, and the reduced-sodium bouillons aren't much better. Even worse, finding any low-sodium veggie bouillon is impossible...save for this one. For my taste, this veggie bouillon is a tad sweet, but, then again, there is nearly zero sodium! The good news: you get to control exactly how much salt you add when using this broth powder to tame the sweetness of this bouillon, and I imagine that the sweetness comes from the pure dehydrated veggies used to create this bouillon. I add a touch more garlic and onion powder to amp up its savory flavor, and a touch of tomato to provide more body, but it's a great base from which to begin. Will be ordering more as I use up what I've purchased. Thank you!

...but it had a slight "fake" taste about it. Works ok in large batch soups

Nice large bag but has no re-seal feature like a ZipLock style bag so I put the contents in a Mason canning jar for storage. I use low cal vegetable soups in a weekly menu schedule to offset some carb rich meals and to get the vitamins, minerals and fiber for a healthy well rounded diet. This vegetable soup base add a good deal of flavor to my otherwise bland recipes....and also I enjoy just a quick hot cup of vegetable broth from this mix especially on a cold winter day.

This is a fresh tasting product and very handy to have in my pantry for making quick low sodium soups and sauces - I totally recommend this product .

I bought this powder to improve the taste of my soups, but was horrified that the first ingredient is corn syrup solids. I would have not bought it if the product description on amazon marketplace would have written this important information. The seller was very quick to respond to the error, got my money back, and hopefully will correct the product information.
