Questions About This Product

The things people actually want to know before they cook with it.

Is it vegan?
No. It is vegetarian, but it contains cultured whey and natural flavors with milk, so it is not dairy free. Better Than Bouillon makes separate vegetarian bases, so check the label if you need vegan.
Does it contain real mushrooms?
Yes. Mushrooms are the first ingredient, which is why the paste is brown and tastes like concentrated mushroom stock rather than like a seasoning.
Why is it a paste instead of cubes or powder?
A paste keeps more of the cooked mushroom flavor and dissolves faster than a cube. It also lets you measure a half teaspoon when you only want a hint.
How long does an open jar last?
Kept refrigerated with a clean spoon, it stays good for months. Go by the Best By date on the jar, and toss it if it dries out, darkens or smells off.
Can I use it in place of dried mushrooms or mushroom stock?
Yes. One teaspoon in a cup of hot water replaces a cup of mushroom stock, and a teaspoon stirred into a sauce gives the depth you would get from a handful of soaked dried porcini.
Does it contain gluten?
No wheat ingredients are listed, but the jar is not labeled gluten free, so check the label on the jar you receive if that matters to you.
