Kitchen Basics Stock

I have been reading the thread on the other broth. I like this stock

so thought I'd ask about it.

Here's the link http://www.kitchenbasics.net/faq.htm

Here's what the website says about ingredients.

1. Do Kitchen Basics contain ingredients which can trigger a reaction

in those people with food allergies?

While no food can be guaranteed to be safe from causing an allergic

reaction in 100% of the population, Kitchen Basics Stocks are all

natural and do not contain many of the ingredients which cause food

allergies.

Kitchen Basics Chicken Stock is slow cooked from or with:

Chicken bones

Carrots, onion, celery

Natural flavor—protein without artificial additives

Bay leaf, thyme and peppercorn

Honey and salt

Kitchen Basics Beef Flavor Stock is slow cooked from or with:

Beef bones

Carrots, onion, leek, tomato and garlic

Natural flavor—protein without artificial additives

Bay leaf, thyme and peppercorn

Honey and salt

Kitchen Basics Stocks do not contain:

MSG (monosodium glutamate)

HVP (hydrolyzed vegetable protein)

Disodium inosinate or guanylate

Yeast extract

Yeast

Soy

Milk, whey, caseine or caseinates

Wheat, oats, rye, barley

2. What is the shelf life of the product?

Unopened, the product is good indefinitely. The carton provides a

long-lasting barrier to spoilage, sometimes lasting years with little

loss in flavor. Should the product be exposed to the air at room

temperature for a few hours (carton opened or accidentally dropped

and a seal broken), the product inside will ferment and produce a bad

odor. In many cases, the carton will swell from top to bottom.

Unfortunately, product code dates are of little use in determining

whether or not the product is good. To be safe, make sure the

carton is not swelled, smell the product before pouring it out, and

always bring your recipes to a boil to render the food safe.

Once opened, the product is generally good for about 10 days.

However, this may range from 1 to 3 weeks. Again, it is best to

smell the product before using it and boil all recipes.

3. How do I use Kitchen Basics?

In any recipe calling for stock or broth, replace the amount called

for with Kitchen Basics. Pour straight from the carton; no need to

add water.

To add flavor to rice, risotto, cous-cous, potatoes and noodles, cook

in Kitchen Basics instead of water.

A simple yet winning application is to put a chicken or roast in a

large covered oven dish, cut up and add vegetables like potatoes,

carrots, and onions, then pour a 12 oz. carton of Kitchen Basics over

the food; cook at 375 degrees F for 1 1/2 hours.

4. Can Kitchen Basics Stocks be used on a diabetic diet?

While you should always consult your doctor or dietitian, Kitchen

Basics Stocks, at less than 1 gram of total sugars per serving,

represents only a small fraction of the recommended daily allowance

of sugar. Several diabetic clinics recommend Kitchen Basics as a

basic ingredient in the diabetic diet.

5. Why do you use honey?

While homemade stocks do not normally contain honey, we use a very

small amount for safety reasons. If for any reason the carton should

be damaged or opened and product is exposed, the honey enhances a

natural fermentation process that, while not harmful in and of

itself, will make the product smell bad and discourage usage.

Thanks for any input,

Debbie,

This ingredient:

<<Natural flavor-protein without artificial additives >>

...... would make me put it back on the shelf and consider it illegal for SCD.

Manufacters are allowed to add all kinds of things under the " natural flavor "

heading that we cannot use on SCD. You would have to find out EXACTLY what this

" natural flavor-protein " is.

That's always the safest road to take, Debbie. We just want everyone here to be

successful... and healthy. It's really sad and frustrating when someone isn't

making good progress and then we finally uncover one little TEENY bit of

something illegal in one product they were using, unknowingly undermining all

their hard work! I want to get a T-shirt made up that just says " MAKE YOUR OWN "

on the front. :)
