Homemade Vegetable Stock Powder

Course Seasonings
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 3 minutes
Total Time 13 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 large carrot unpeeled
  • 2 stalks celery
  • 1 medium onion
  • a handful of parsley with stalks
  • 2 twigs thyme fresh
  • 2 twigs rosemary fresh
  • sea salt or table salt 20% of the weight of your vegetables and herbs
  • other vegetables and herbs: garlic, tomato, leek, basil, sage, etc.

Instructions

  • Wash, pat dry and finely chop all your vegetables and herbs. (I put them in a food processor).
  • Weigh them and put them in a medium pan.
  • Add salt. The salt is equal to 20% of the weight of your vegetables. For example, my vegetables weighed 455 grams (16.4 ounces) therefore I put 91 grams (3.2 ounces) of salt.
  • Cook over low heat for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  • At first, you will see lots of water coming out of the vegetables. Wait until the water is completely reabsorbed.
  • Spread the mixture on a baking tray lined with parchment paper
  • and bake at 150 degrees C (300 degrees F), until it's dry and slightly crispy (about 1 hour 15 minutes). Don't forget to stir from time to time.
  • Once the vegetables are cool, put them in a food processor and blitz until you get a crumbled powder.
  • Store the homemade vegetable stock powder for up to 3 months in an airtight glass jar, away from light or moisture.
  • Use 1 teaspoon for 1 liter (4 cups) of water.
