Instructions

Prep Vegetables

  • Rinse celery and onion. On a cutting board, chop your celery into fine pieces. Roughly chop your onion into medium pieces. Transfer into a bowl and set aside.
  • Next, clean mushroom with a damp paper towel. On that same cutting board, begin to cut off the bottom ends of the king oyster mushroom and discard as that part is very tough. Cut off the tops and chop them up. You will want to keep this part as it's very tender.
  • Cut your mushroom in half length wise down the middle. With your hands, begin to tear your mushroom into a shredded like texture. Then take your knife and cut those pieces in half. Add shredded mushroom to your mixing bowl along with the rest of your vegetables.

Make Broth

  • To your Dutch oven or Stock Pot, add in your water and Not Chicken Broth Base. Stir in the broth base until the liquid is well combined with the water. Next add in garlic powder, onion powder, poultry seasoning, chopped onions, celery, and king oyster mushrooms. Mix together.
  • Turn stove on high heat. Cover and bring to a boil. Once it has boil, turn down to a low medium heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
  • Once done, allow broth to cool for 5 minutes. Then place a deep colander over a large mixing bowl and drain broth leaving behind the cooked vegetables. The left over vegetables are very tender (especially the mushrooms!) so keep them to be added to soups and/or to use in my vegan cornbread dressing!
  • Store this broth or use it in whatever recipe that calls for broth! It is so good you will love it!
