Alternatively, you can use a scoop/measuring spoon to freeze the puree in measured ‘chunks’ (i.e., 1 Tbsp) instead. Simmer 2 hours – Simmer for 2 hours and reduce by half. We’re starting with 2 litres / 2 quarts of water which will reduce to 1 litre / 1 quart;

Make sure that when you’re using wine in any recipe you cook it down so that the alcohol cooks off. Next, add the salt and stir well. This will encourage all the excess liquid to release from the veggies. Cook for a further 15-20 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally. Step 4: Blend the vegetable bouillon Other vegetables: there is some leniency in what you use for these vegetable bouillon cubes. For example, you could use parsnip, fennel, sun-dried tomatoes, peas, spinach, etc., too. However, avoid any veggies that will give more of a bitter flavor like leeks. There are four main elements to homemade vegetable bouillon cubes: vegetables, aromatics (seasonings), fat, and salt.To make it, you’ll just need a few key pantry ingredients and a food processor to make a fine powder. This recipe will make about ¼ cup of powder. You’ll probably use no more than 1 teaspoon of powder each time you use it. Yes, you can omit the salt entirely. However, I recommend adding salt as it enhances the flavors of the vegetable. Recipe Notes & Variations Note – you can further cook it down slightly to remove more of the water content. I prefer to cook the veggies for a lower amount of time, though.

Transfer to the freezer to freeze for several hours until hardened (due to the salt content, they won’t freeze completely solid). Then use a sharp knife to cut into cubes and transfer to a freezer-safe container to store. Great seasonings can include thyme, oregano, tarragon, rosemary, and basil, all dried, along with onion and garlic powder. For a richer flavor, add cumin. To make basic cubes, simply line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper that overhangs the edges of the pan. Evenly spread the mixture and then freeze until hardened. You can then cut into cubes.Like me, you probably have had variety of those foil wrapped cubes sitting in your cupboard at some time or another. Add the flakes to a coffee/spice grinder or small food processor and process into powder. Sieve and repeat the process if there are lots of larger pieces still.

Add the remainder of the ingredients (except the parsley), stir well, and then allow to simmer, covered, to cook until softened – this will take around 20 minutes over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally. Once blended, add the parsley and stir to combine. Next, it’s time to decide how you want to store the homemade vegan bouillon cubes – make frozen cubes, dehydrate into powder, or do both with parts of the puree. You can also keep some fresh, stored in the refrigerator for a week.If you want the cubes to be the same size, I recommend using a square/rectangle baking dish and measuring when scoring the lines. I’m not too ‘perfection-y’ about this, so then I have smaller and larger pieces to choose from. Make Pastina Soup by adding 1-2 cubes to a pot of water, then add the salt and pastina. When the pastina has cooked, take it off the heat and add grated Parmigiano on top. Enjoy!
