Rose's Shop Watch-September '14: Telma Chicken Soup Mix

Telma Chicken Soup Mix

Why?
The best store cupboard chicken stock.

Although I keep home-made stock in the freezer, I find I always need a standby stock in the store cupboard. There are times when the home-made runs out and there are also times when I need only a little stock in a dish, so its not worth defrosting a large quantity.

A friend of mine told me of a chicken soup mix that makes fantastic stock called Telma which comes from Israel. And, when you think about it, it makes sense that the flavour is very good given the renowned therapeutic properties of chicken noodle soup! The stock is a little salty so remember this for your seasoning when cooking with it.

You have to hunt it out in the World Food bit of Tesco (or ask at customer service) and I have also seen it in a large branch of Sainsburys. I have found Telma stock cubes in Waitrose too, which are very good, but I find the large resealable tub called Chicken Soup Mix is a better store cupboard bet as it lasts for ages. If you can’t find it in your local store, you can get it online from Ocado or Amazon.

Conclusion:
A definite store cupboard essential.
