Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 I use Bill's Best Chick'nish for broths, as well as Bill's Best " Beaf " . McKay's might have MSG. I thought it did a while back, so I avoided it. Here's the recipe for Chicken Style Seasoning, as found on pg. 19 of Marcella Lynch's " The Joy of Natural Cooking " . The one in the Newstart book leaves off the brown sugar and salt (as I do), but is otherwise very close. HTH! Marilyn Chicken Style Seasoning 4 t. celery salt 1 t. turmeric 4 t. onion powder 1/2 t. garlic powder 1/4 t. marjoram 4 t. ground parsley flakes pinch savory 1/4 c.salt 1t. brown sugar One teaspoon of this can be substituted for one packet of G. Washington Golden Seasoning. Marilyn **************Start the year off right.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Okay, most of the scrambled tofu recipes refer to " chicken-style seasoning " . What's that? Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 HI Pam, I believe there are several different recipes in our files for " chicken-style seasoning " . It's a savory seasoning blend that is a blend of herbs that go well in most dishes. It's inexpensive to make yourself, although maybe it's more convenient to buy the ready-made versions. Brands for two of them are: Bill's Best Chicknish' McKay's Chicken-Style Seasoning (check for the whey free version; the other isn't vegan) Both these brands can be purchased in containers or in bulk at most health food stores. It's a staple in my kitchen --- filling in the gaps of flavor in many foods.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Ah, okay. I'm only down to condiments so far! I'll watch for those at the HFS tomorrow too, the big one seems to be getting some more of the US brands lately.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 > McKay's might have MSG. I thought it did a while back, so I avoided it. Yes, some versions of McKay's do have MSG. They do make a vegan, MSG free version but it's still quite salty. I've mostly switched over to Bill's Best Chicknish' as well, although it took me awhile to get used to the lower sodium levels. If you make your own version of chicken-style seasoning and don't want to use sugar, you might try the sweet herb, stevia. It works quite well.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 " Chicken-style seasoning " may also be called to as " Chicken-style Bouillon Powder " or, as in Australia, " Chicken Style Stock Powder " (Massel being the best known vegan and gluten free brand). I'll often make a recipe from the files, although I do cut back on the salt a bit as the recipe is way too salty for my tastes: Chick-it Seasoning From " The Guilt-free Gourmet " 1/4 cup salt 1/2 cup nutritional (savoury) yeast flakes 1/4 to 1/2 tsp turmeric 1/2 to 1 tsp garlic powder 1 Tbsp (3 tsp) onion powder 1/2 tsp marjoram 1/2 tsp sage -OR- summer savoury 1 Tbsp (3 tsp) parsley 1. Blend thoroughly to a powder-like consistency. 2. Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator. This is an excitotoxin-free seasoning. It is great in any of your recipes that call for chicken-like seasoning or chicken broth. You can use it to season soups, sauces, gravies, burgers, loaves or other savoury dishes. Keeps very well in the freezer, so make up a double recipe! , pdw <pdworkman wrote: > > Okay, most of the scrambled tofu recipes refer to " chicken-style > seasoning " .
