  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground turmeric (optional)

Instructions

Notes

  • If your poultry seasoning has salt, use less salt. You can always add more.
  • The vegan chicken broth powder should last up to 6 months when stored in a tightly sealed jar and away from humidity. However, this can change based on storage conditions. Discard it if it develops mold, an unusual odor, or signs of moisture contamination.

  • The nutritional info is an estimate and will vary based on how much salt and sugar you use, as well as what kind of nutritional yeast is used.
