Chicken Bouillon Cubes

Hi All! Can anyone recommend a chicken broth or bouillon cubes that doesn't have gluten hidden in it? All I have come across has the mystery 'natural flavor' and I'm scared to try it.

Thanks!

Amanda

I use the Pacific Foods brand for all my broths. They are all natural (hooray!) and say gluten free right on the side.

I second the HerbOx recommendation. They have a good flavor, and don't have a lot of extra junk, either.

I put it in EVERYTHING from spaghetti sauce to rice, eggs and potatoes...anything that boils. :D

I particularly like to put the chicken ones in boiling potatoes, and the beef ones in green beans! It's much healthier than dumping in salt and butter. :D I've used them in rice, too, but I never would have thought of eggs.

Use chicken bouillon when boiling brussel sprouts.

Not one of my favorite veggies, but they are actually rather good this way.

OH!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

I also use Better Than Bouillon. Works great when you need some flavoring but don't have the water/liquid to dissolve a cube in.

If you're a poor college kid like me, Swanson's beef and broths are both gluten-free and affordable. That's pre-made broth, though, not bullion.

We use this one too. It tastes better than any boullion cubes I have had. Delicious!

My boyfriend has celiac as well as being allergic to soy & dairy. Does anyone know of any brands that are also soy & milk free?

Or is there a way to turn chicken stock into a relative equivalent? I have an awesome steak marinade I love but it calls for bouillion with very little liquid.

Its one of my favorite recipes but I'd rather not poison my sweetie... Somehow I don't think he'd appreciate it very much either. Any help would be appreciated!

You marinate steak with chicken?  Herb Ox makes a sodium free powder that is soy and dairy free, too

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
