Tuesday’s Cupful: Bouillon

A dicey, savory character, packed with taste

This food item is packed with flavor. Cooks can make gallons of tasty stock with bouillon. The word bouillon comes from the French verb bouillir which means "to boil." We purchased a 2.82 ounce box of powdered chicken bouillon by GOYA for $1.19 at Giant. Look for chicken, beef, and vegetable flavored varieties of this culinary item. If you keep bouillon in your pantry, remember that an added advantage is that it has a lengthy shelf-life. The Mixed Stew crew suggests using bouillon to make tasty steamed rice, or, rice pilaf.
