Create your own versatile and flavorful soup base mix at home with this easy recipe.
Combine the powdered milk, cornstarch, onion flakes, black pepper, chicken bouillon powder, dried basil, and dried thyme in an airtight container.
Shake the container well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
When ready to use, measure 1/3 cup of the mix and combine it with 1 1/4 cups of water in a saucepan.
Use a whisk to prevent lumps from forming as you mix.
Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
For a creamier texture, you can add a splash of cream or milk during cooking.
Serve the prepared soup base as is or use it as a foundation for your favorite soup recipes.
Add cooked vegetables, chicken, or mushrooms to create a complete dish.
