Marigold Swiss Vegetable Bouillon, 500 GR

I used Marigold Swiss Bouillon powder for many years when I lived in Scotland and was distressed that I could not find it in the U.S. Fortunately, The Yummy Palette in the U.K. carries Marigold and ships to the States by courier so I have the package in less than a week. After trying many other “stock cubes” and “instant stock pastes”, I can say that there is NO comparison with Marigold. I cook all my rice, pasta, grains such as quinoa and farro in it by adding about tablespoon to the boiling water. No need to add additional salt to the recipe then. The wonderful fragrance while cooking, has none of the metallic smell of cheap stock cubes. Several British chefs have advised that if you can’t make your own stock, use Marigold Swiss Bouillon. I agree!

I use this in many meals and it really adds to the flavor of the dish. Give it a try!!

I prepare beans from dry, rice and quinoa, chili and soups in an electric pressure cooker. This is by far the best powdered flavorful broth to use across the board with all those things. I'm never without it. Dissolves quickly in warm liquid.

This is the best bouillon. I use it for soups and sometimes as a seasoning.

My favorite veggie stock and can't find it anywhere else. Kind of expensive, but will buy again when it runs out.

Found this recommended by a HIT blogger. Many boullions have additives that cause problems for histamine sensitive people. I wanted to reduce my exposure to additives as much as I could so I tried it. Tastes great and worked in place of the stocks I used to use. I will continue to buy it.

i purchased this item to replace the rapunzel bouillion which i loved to very much but can no longer get in the usa. when i used this marigold i found it to have too much salt. i bought the another marigold with low salt and that one still was too salty. but the worst thing was that once it cooked into the food it took on a very bad smell. it was like a poop smell. i threw the food out. i tried one more time to use the product thinking maybe it was something else but it took on that poop smell again and again i threw the food out. so it is the product and i would not recommend it. sorry.

I have been using Marigold Bouillon for about 30 years and love it. As I now live in New Zealand I have to import it but it is still worthwhile!!!"

Excelente pero…cobran tasas en aduanas y es engorroso y sale caro

Excellent product, exactly as described, it is expensive but doesn’t contain yeast extract which is exactly what I needed. Will buy again. Only issue the packet had been opened by border security

Bien pour soup dans un bol, don du goût dans une sauce, casserole à légume ou viande. Très pratiques.

This is a very practical and versatile pantry staple that I’ve been purchasing for around five years now. The flavour is savoury and well-balanced without tasting artificial. It has a clean vegetable depth rather than an overly synthetic stock-cube taste. Because it’s a powder, you can control how concentrated or diluted you want it to be, which is one of the reasons I prefer it over cubes. You can make a light broth or a stronger, richer base depending on what you need. I personally prefer the standard salt content version. The salt level works well for my needs, and because it’s in powder form, I can easily adjust the strength by adding more or less. I use it in soups, stews, sauces, and also add it directly to rice in the rice cooker for extra flavour. I regularly dissolve it in hot water and drink it as a simple savoury broth when I want something warm but not heavy. It dissolves quickly without clumping and blends smoothly. With normal cooking use, the tub lasts a long time. Recently I’ve used it more frequently, so I went through it faster — but that reflects increased usage rather than poor value. The 500g size is generous. The tub is convenient for storage and allows accurate scooping, which I find more practical than cubes when measuring specific amounts. Ingredient-wise, I appreciate that it’s vegan and free from artificial additives. It feels like a straightforward, reliable product. Overall, flavourful, flexible, and consistently good — which is why I’ve continued repurchasing it for years.

Lovely product. Very flavoursome. Easy to use.
