Cooking dinner???????!


Question: Cooking dinner??????!?
I'm trying to make Brocoli soup and the ingridients require:

600gbroccoli florets(prepared weight)
1onion, finely chopped
450mlwater
1vegetable stock cube
600mllow-fat milk
salt & pepper

I don't have vegetable stock cubes, what does it do and can I still make dinner without it!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Vegetable stock basically just adds flavor!. Don't worry, it'll still taste great without it but you just need to add a few extra things!

Just add extra salt and pepper and a teaspoon of mixed herbs!. Or even a chicken/other kind of stock cube if you have one of those!.

Good luck!! Www@FoodAQ@Com

Use the vegetables all and cook it fast with little water, adding water as it needs some!.
That will reduce the veg to a stock which in turn you may make a soup from by adding the milk and spice and a thickening agent if you need to!.
The veg stock cube is fine, add that with your reduced stock!.

yes the stock is very important, when making a soup or risotto the stock is the base of the mixture!.

Just head down to your local supermarket and buy some there only like $1 for a pack of 6 cubes, at least then you'll have plenty for next time!

it gives it some flavor and adds lots of sodium to the recipe

you can make dinner without it, but maybe if you have some chicken stock or something of that nature it will make up for the veggie stock cubeWww@FoodAQ@Com

The vegetable stock cube is for flavor!. A chicken bouillon cube would work in it's place!. Or instead of the water you could use chicken stock or broth, both of those will add more flavor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

sorry i dont know



but i think vegetable stock gives it flavour

and makes it nicer


but i think you should try without stock
just to see what it tastes likeWww@FoodAQ@Com

chicken stock just adds a little more flavour!. it will be fine without it just wont have that salty chickeny flavour!. goodluck =)Www@FoodAQ@Com

It just adds some flavor!. Go ahead and make it without it!. If you have the other ingredients, you should be fine!.
