Best packaged beef bouillon according to redditors

I actually agree with you. However I am irritated by people using weak and easily defeated arguments that hurt the message they are trying to convey.

edit: Comparing it to the most economical canned beef I could find puts it at roughly 2x as expensive for having roughly 2x the nutrition. Sounds like a wash to me.

Good work. I think its a perfect meal here - easy, water based, uses what veges you have.

Spam is considered a gourmet ingredient in Korea. To make it Korean try adding dasida (get small quantities in Korean grocers).

I imagine you're talking about the granulated hon dashi? This is the Korean counterpart. There are lots of other options though!

I mentioned in a comment above but get these vegan beef bouillon cubes to make a stock!

👌🏻👌🏻

I needed to fill a craving, so I just bought these little bouillon-type cubes to make the broth. Then, half of an 8-oz pack of shirataki noodles in the bowl, pour in some broth, and add the meats and toppings of your choice. Mine were a little bit of snow fungus, lime juice, Thai basil, cilantro, bean sprouts, small strips of beef, thinly shaved ribeye and some thinly shaved Berkshire pork. I was able to pick up everything from my local Asian market (99 Ranch). It perfectly satisfied the craving.

Gotcha, my mother in law is the same way. If I had to do brisket/roast before where I needed the beef broth (gluten free), there is a company called Herb Ox that makes a great one. I've also used one they have that is sodium free for friends. We have a couple local stores that carry it here but I've also bought it off Amazon as well.

Then if you guys like beef, I highly recommend getting a chuck roast and roasting it with some Lipton Recipe Secrets onion soup!

Roast Beef

Ingredients: 1 chuck or rump roast, 2lbs or so, Lipton Recipe Secrets in Onion or Beefy Onion, Garlic powder and salt and pepper (optional: veggies like carrots or turnips or mushrooms) (also optional for gravy: Kitchen Bouquet Seasoning, Better Than Bouillon Beef Base, drippings from the roast, corn starch for thickening)

1. Line a 2 qt. square baking dish (like this one) with aluminum foil both horizontally and vertically. You will be making a pocket you close over the roast, so make sure the foil is long enough on all ends.
   
   
2. Place the beef in the aluminum-lined dish and pour 1 packet of soup mix over it. If you are using a larger roast, use both packets. Roll the roast around to make sure it's well covered, then add garlic powder and cracked pepper and vegetables if desired. Close the aluminum foil around the roast to make a rolled-up pocket a'la papillote.
   
   
3. Preheat the oven to broil. Once at the desired temperature, put in the roast and leave it for approx~1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours.
   
   
4. Once cooked, take out the roast and put the meat on a cutting board or dish. Drain the drippings into a small sauce pan. Add a splash of seasoning, a teaspoon of bouillon, stir over medium heat. Once bubbling, add corn starch per directions on container.
   
   
5. Cut, dress, and serve!

Something like [this](pho spice cubes beef flavor https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004F93UNG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_KsPKDbQ95CS3R). I don't recall the brand but my Asian market had like 5 different ones. I thin sliced some beef and onions and poured near boiling water over it. Then I added bouillon to taste, Sriracha, fish sauce, chili paste, soy sauce, and fermented bean paste. Added some cooked rice noodles and ate. Super easy.

Oh yeah! It is a bit pricy on [Amazon] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004S036D6?pc_redir=1404163548&robot_redir=1), but this is what I get.

That's a good question, I actually kind of don't use one?
I would say this is probably closest to my "recipe". I go by taste/smell. Adding things here and there if it's not right.

These are also awesome for when you're new to making pho and can help round out your broth.

If you like it that much you should probably just make it yourself it's pretty easy and super cheap. These cubes can get you pretty close to what you can find in b-ham.

Got a jar of Wyler's bouillon cubes? Problem solved.

I drank beef broth before and after surgery. The sodium level is a little high but my nutritionist said that she wasn't worried about the levels after surgery considering how little intake I had.

We make our own chicken broth here, so I can't give any advice on that. In general, I tend to think as long as it fits your macros, then it's not really worth worrying about. If you're into broth though, I cannot recommend making your own highly enough. It's the bomb-diggity, and it's easy as sin. Go buy a rotisserie chicken, and eat it. Then pluck the remaining meat, and put the carcass in a crock pot on low overnight with a lot of water, more salt than you think you need, lots of pepper, and some fresh rosemary or thyme or Italian seasoning if you want to go animal style.

As far as the beef broth goes, again, Herbox. Amazon link here, no affiliate or anything. You're welcome, in advance for what will be a life changing discovery :)

If you really want to have jars that only require hot water to be poured in it, you'll definitely need powdered stock. I'm a huge fan of "Dasida" if you can find it. Otherwise chicken or beef boullion cubes work. Low sodium's going to be harder though...

I find the key to japanese style ramen is the fresh ginger, which I guess could be julienned and thrown into the jar. I usually use a healthy serving of miso too, but apparently powdered miso does exist.

Anyway, the soup stock, ginger, and miso are going to give you that japanese ramen flavor. It's going to depend on how much longevity you want in your jars as to how fresh of ingredients you can use

For future reference, just season with chicken bouillon powder such as https://www.amazon.com/Knorr-Granulated-Bouillon-Chicken-7-9/dp/B000HZF1AM
