Chicken Bouillon Cubes


Amanda C.

Recommended Posts

Amanda C. Rookie

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.

HerbOX Chicken and Beef Broth and Cubes are gluten free.

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.

Thanks everyone, I'll need to check both of those out. :)

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

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

      EXACTLY! I was asked yesterday on my LAST video call with Standford and I stated exactly yes absolutely this is why I need the name! One, get proper care, two, not get worse.Im falling apart, stressed out, in pain and just opened email from Stanford stating I was rude ect.I want that video reviewed by higher ups and see if that women still has a job or not.Im saying this because I've been medically screwed and asking for help because bills don't pay itself. This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
