Organic Granulated Vegetable Broth

Granulated vegetable bouillon from Trentino, instantly soluble

Bauer's granulated vegetable bouillon combines potatoes, carrots, celery, and five other organic vegetables with sea salt and yeast extract into a granulate that dissolves in seconds. No glutamate, no hydrogenated fat, just the taste of real vegetables from the garden.

Granulated vegetable bouillon is the seasoning granulate that the Trentino-based manufacturer Bauer has been using since the 1930s to form the foundation for soups, sauces, and risotto. One teaspoon in boiling water is all it takes to turn organically grown potatoes, carrots, onions, parsley, leeks, celery, garlic, and tomatoes into an organic vegetable bouillon that tastes fresh and intensely vegetable-forward.

Fresh in taste, intense in vegetables

Anyone who opens the tin will immediately smell celery and leek, with a subtle sweetness of carrot and tomato in the background. The granulate dissolves almost instantly; no lumps, no aftertaste that pushes itself to the forefront. This is exactly what distinguishes a good granulated vegetable bouillon from the cubes on supermarket shelves, which often taste only of salt.

Four grams of granulate, one level teaspoon, per 250 milliliters of water, briefly brought to a boil, and you have a clear, savory base. It is uncomplicated: as a base for minestrone, as stock for risotto, to add depth to tomato sauce, or as a seasoning for fish and meat when you are in a hurry. Even stirred in cold, in a vinaigrette or a dip, it provides a savory base note without anyone ever tasting the bouillon in the end.

Seasoned with sea salt and yeast extract

Bauer avoids preservatives and artificial flavors, instead using sea salt, yeast extract, and a little sunflower oil to carry the flavor of the organic vegetable bouillon. It is also gluten-free, making it a reliable choice for those with celiac disease, and is, of course, vegan and suitable for vegetarians.

It works well in yesterday's vegetable soup, having had time to meld overnight, making it taste even more savory the next day. A dash is equally good in a pasta sauce when the liquid needs a bit of backbone. If you cook soups often, you will also find Bauer porcini mushroom bouillon cubes in our shop for a heartier variety, or you can browse through our stocks and broths for alternatives containing meat.

A family that has believed in bouillon since 1928

Augusto Bauer began importing chicken bouillon cubes from Berlin in 1928, where his brother Edoardo had learned the trade. In 1933, the two founded Italy's first company for granulated bouillon in San Martino, a district of Trento; a family business that remains in Bauer hands to this day. Sons Carlo Alberto and Claudio took over the factory in 1960 and expanded the range to include meat extracts and the first ready-made sauces.

Throughout this time, the family never deviated from the course set by the founders, as Augusto Bauer once stipulated: better to be gentle than fast. While other manufacturers rely on rapid drying, Bauer still adheres to slower low-temperature drying today—more expensive to produce, but gentler on the aroma and nutrients of the ingredients.

In 1997, after years of conversion, the ICEA certification for the manufacturer's first organic products was obtained, and in 2012, the family moved into a new company headquarters which, according to the manufacturer, was awarded LEED Gold certification. Impressive indeed.

This granulated vegetable bouillon is certified organic, vegan, lactose-free, and contains no hydrogenated fats; it is ready to hand for everyday use and reliable for every day of the week. You can find more from Bauer Brodo Trentino in our manufacturer range.
