Description

Low-sodium vegetable broth granules are a dehydrated seasoning used to enhance the flavor of a wide variety of dishes such as soups, stews, rice, and sauces. This product consists of a concentrated mixture of vegetables like onion, celery, carrot, garlic, and aromatic herbs, processed and dried into small granules.

Their origin dates back to the need for practical and quick options to flavor meals without resorting to liquid broths or traditional bouillon cubes, which usually contain high levels of salt. The low-sodium version is specially designed for those who wish to reduce salt intake without sacrificing flavor, making it ideal for healthy diets and individuals with restrictions due to hypertension or cardiovascular problems.

Among their properties, they stand out as a natural source of flavor and aroma, in addition to providing some nutrients from the dehydrated vegetables. Their presentation in granules facilitates their dissolution and dosing in recipes, allowing for more precise control of the final salt level and flavor of the dish.

In different Hispanic American countries, these granules are also known as vegetable bouillon powder, vegetable seasoning, or simply low-salt broth granules.
