Easy Gravy

Hi Team,

Please could you consider adding a note to your recipes that contain bouillon cubes to clarify whether they're the sort designed to be dissolved in half a litre vs a litre of water? As the flavouring and salt concentration provided will be halved or doubled as a result of using the wrong sort, which will obviously affect the dish. My results when using bouillon cubes designed for 1l water seem rather too salty so I have concluded that you use the ones intended for ½l and have thus taken to using half a cube, but it would be great you could please confirm!

Thanks for all you do

Heyy there, K, thanks so much for the feedback! In the meantime, we usually go with a ratio of 1 cube per 500 mL. We often use the house-brand cubes from our local store here (Albert Heijn), which weigh around 10 grams, and sometimes we get a brand called Maggi. Feel free to adjust the ratio based on your cubes or taste preferences, though. Happy cooking! 😊

I'm in NL and shop at AH so have the same options you mention. So thanks a lot for your response, very helpful and confirms my hunch! Except that the Maggi groentebouillon IS the one intended for a litre that I have taken to using half a cube of for your recipes, otherwise they tend to be overly salty. Just FYI! Thanks again, also want to say i love the app it's a work of art

Added a few sliced mushrooms and simmered for a few minutes until cooked. Very easy to make and great taste!
