gluten free bouillon

Many items explicitly list "Gluten-Free" under dietary needs or include phrases like "gluten free" in the product description or feature list, which manufacturers use to indicate the product is free of gluten.

Some cartons are labeled unsalted or "no added salt" and list a sodium value per 1-cup serving—for example, one unsalted chicken stock shows 125 milligrams of sodium per cup.

Descriptions suggest using broths as a soup base, to add flavor and moisture to entrees, to replace water when cooking rice or pasta, for braising and marinating, to make gravies and sauces, or simply for sipping as a warm beverage.

Many broths are sold in recyclable cartons, and some descriptions and reviews note resealable carton packaging, which makes it easy to use partial amounts and store the remainder.

Listings commonly state "no added MSG," "no preservatives," and "no artificial flavors or colors." One description notes "No MSG added, except that which occurs naturally in yeast extract."
