Onion soup mix
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup dehydrated onion
- 1/3 cup beef bouillon powder
- 4 teaspoon onion powder (I actually had less because I ran out but it was still fine)
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed celery seeds (I don't know about crushed, mine just say celery seeds and are very tiny already.)
- (original called for 1/4 teaspoon sugar -I couldn't see the need to add this so I didn't.)
Directions
- Combine all ingredients and store in and airtight container.
- About 5 Tablespoons are equal to 1 package store bought. (I used 3 rounded Tablespoons for the recipe I was making and it was plenty strong but I think the bouillon I have is particularly flavorful.)
Cream of anything soup
Ingredients
- 3 cups powdered milk
- 1 cup cornstarch
- 1 cup powdered chicken bouillon (I actually didn't add this when I used it last night and I don't think I would add it next time. see directions below)
- 2 Tablespoons onion powder (actually didn't have this at all (see above recipe I had made the night before :) I just tossed in some extra dehydrated onions to the actual recipe.)
- 1 teaspoons thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon basil
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 3 Tablespoons butter powder (optional - didn't have it for cream of mushroom last night.)
Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Store in and airtight container at room temperature up to a year.)
To make soup:
- In a medium-size saucepan, combine 1/2 cup dry soup mix with 1 1/4 cups water, 1 Tablespoon butter (if you didn't put butter powder in the mix), and desired flavorings (see below)
Cream of chicken - no extra seasonings - although my plan in the future is to make it with chicken stock and not add the bouillon to the mix. I just didn't think it through last night as I was hurriedly trying to get dinner prepared.
Cream of mushroom: Add 1/2 cup minced mushrooms. I actually added the mix (no bouillon) a Tablespoons of beef bouillon, water, and dehydrated/freeze dried (not sure which I have) that I just crushed in my hand. It was really good that way (in the recipe at least)
Cream of celery: Add 1/2 cup minced celery. You can puree soup when it cools if necessary
