Early this year, I stumbled across a reference to this product in a vegan food blog. It sounded really interesting and, finding it on Amazon, I purchased a jar. Because it is so condensed, it lasts quite a long time. I have used this product for many different recipes over the past seven months, and I still have about one-fourth of the jar left. It keeps well in the refrigerator, and has not gone bad.
For every cup of vegetable stock that is called for in a recipe, I substitute 1 teaspoon of this bouillon base plus 1 cup of water. The product directions suggest whisking 1 teaspoon of this bouillon into 1 cup of boiling water to create a cup of vegetable stock. I personally use a slightly different method, which is described below.
I have included one of the many vegan recipes in which I have used this product, for any vegans, vegetarians, or flexitarians who might be interested.
Thai, Vegan, Tofu-Coconut Curry Soup
Yield: 12 cups with rice noodles, 10 cups without rice noodles
Ingredients
1 lb. (16 oz.) super firm tofu (or extra firm), drained and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
2 cups frozen peppers and onions mix
4 cups frozen stir-fry vegetables
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon monk fruit powder (OR 2 tablespoons brown sugar)
1/4 teaspoon stevia (optional)
1 tablespoon basil, dried
2 tablespoons cilantro, dried
1/4 teaspoon chipotle (or red) pepper powder
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
1 teaspoon kaffir lime leaf powder
1/2 teaspoon lemongrass
1 teaspoon lime juice powder (OR 3 tablespoons lime juice)
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
3 tablespoons coconut powder
1 tablespoon tapioca powder (thickener)
3 tablespoon Bragg’s aminos (OR soy sauce)
1 tablespoon Better Than Bouillon Vegetarian No Chicken Base bouillon paste
2 cups water
6 ounces rice noodles (optional—serve with rice if not using noodles)
Directions
1. Place diced tofu, vegetables, and 2 cups water in a big pot on medium heat.
2. Place monk fruit powder, stevia, all spices, coconut milk powder, and tapioca powder in a bowl and whisk together until thoroughly blended.
3. Gradually whisk in Bragg’s aminos and vegetable bouillon paste, then gradually whisk in 1 cup of water to form a thin paste. Pour the paste over the tofu/vegetable mixture and blend well. Pour 1 cup of water into the emptied bowl and swish it around to retrieve every last drop of the spice mixture. Stir it into the soup.
4. Bring the soup to a boil, reduce heat and simmer about 20 minutes, until very hot. If not adding noodles to the soup, serve with rice.
5. Rice noodles: Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Add noodles and cook 2 minutes. Drain noodles and add to the soup. Serve immediately.
NOTES
1. If you have leftovers, this soup keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. 2. I typically substitute Bragg’s aminos for soy sauce, because soy is so salty. But anyone who is not allergic to soy and prefers soy sauce can use that instead.
3. I use SIAM Herbs Kaffir Lime Leaves Powder, which has worked well for my Thai cooking.
4. I have found through experimentation that it is a much more effective means to evenly distribute spices throughout a given dish to add them all at once, rather than one by one. As described above, I whisk together all the dry and liquid spices a recipe calls for—including condensed bouillon paste—along with about 1-2 cups of water, creating a thin paste. I then thoroughly stir that paste into the dish. Using this method has meant that I have avoided ever again running into an undissolved lump of any particular spice in the middle of anything I’ve cooked or baked.
5. If you don’t like spicy food, you can cut back on the amounts listed for the chipotle, ginger, garlic and black pepper.

The one downside is of course the price, which is really high for such a small jar. So I just make broth now and again to make it last. If you were going to use this regularly it would work out quite expensive to say the least. I will probably order again one day when mine's gone but probably not before trying a few cheaper alternatives first.
