Orrington Farms Vegan Broth Base & Seasoning, Ham Flavor, 6-Ounce (Pack of 3)

This vegan ham broth base makes the best vegan seitan ham! The taste was incredible, and I wish I could buy more. I have messaged the company on Facebook, emailed them, and no answer as to if they will be selling this again. So sad, because it is a great product

I use this broth base as the main seasoning when I make homemade vegan scrapple (aka ponhaus). A little bit does the job and my scrapple turns out delicious!

Made my beans taste better than using vegetable broth

Vegan broths are sometimes hard to come by and ever harder to find ones that taste good. This one tastes great and you get a good amount of it, but it can taste a bit too salty at times depending on what you're making. For soups and the such you really won't notice this much as long as you adjust your recipe and don't add any / as much salt, but for gravy it's much more noticeable. The ingredients lists says salt (includes sea salt), but honestly It tastes more like normal table salt than sea salt. 840mg sodium for 1 serving (1 cup broth) is a lot so it would be nice if they either had a no-salt / low salt variation or reduced the amount of salt overall and used only sea salt. That said, once you learn to adjust for it, the flavor makes it a pretty easy choice, but would be an even easier one if they addressed the salt issue.

I absolutely loved this product! I used it for everything! I was so sad to not be able to find it anymore.

It's actually really hard to find a base that's vegetarian... Better yet... Vegan. I'm a vegetarian and I found this, thought I'd try it... Was pleasantly surprised. It was extremely cheap as well. Usually I have to pay with pieces of my soul (or so I feel) every time I get anything that is an alternative to meat. This made me feel good to find. Although, I have no idea what meat tastes like anymore, since I've been a vegetarian since I was 7 years old... And I'm now 36... I found this quite enjoyable. It was supposed to be chicken flavored...but who knows if it really was! Lol. All I know is that it tasted good.

I've been mostly plant-based for the past 4-5 months. It was hard at the beginning, especially trying to find recipes that offer good umami flavor. Soup is something we eat at least a couple times a week in our house (even during summer) so when it came to finding broth, I was happy to have stumbled across this item. The flavor is spot on, and not too salty. I usually add it to vegetable broth that I make with leftover kitchen scraps, just to punch up the flavor a bit. I'll even add it to sauces for stir fry. It's a pretty versatile ingredient. It gives a good amount of umami and it really does "taste like chicken." My husband is a meat eater (don't judge him too harshly, people), and he can't tell the difference. I've since bought this item at my grocery store (they finally started stocking it). Even if I do go back to meat, I'll still continue to buy this. It's worth the money, it tastes good, and I can sprinkle it in just about anything. What else do you need to know to add this to your Amazon shopping cart? :)

First of all, nowhere on my jar of broth does it state it contains GMO ingredients. This is the chicken flavor. Sometimes these reviews include different flavors with different ingredients, and I have seen older pictures of labels with an "includes GMO ingredients" statement. As a sipping broth I thought this was pleasantly average; others find it delicious, and they're just as "right" as I am. "Weak" for one person is "subtle" for the next. There's a slight aroma of something herbal, like rosemary or sage (to me, anyway) which I like, and I like the way it tastes used as a seasoning--once you use enough. And there's the rub. I've been a strict vegetarian for over fifty years, and have consumed boatloads of different powdered broths, and as far as I can remember in my experience, the recipe amount for a cup of broth has always been one teaspoon of product. With this stuff, you need TWO (their directions). That's how "subtle" it is. It might taste OK, but for me not good enough to be, more or less, twice as expensive. I sometimes use some of several different products mixed, chosen for qualities I like about each, for a customized cup of broth--easy and good, and lots of variety depending on the chosen proportions from time to time.

I love this vegan broth base. When I can, I make vegetable broth but sometimes I find that I need to store more important things in my freezer, enter this vegan broth base. I can control the intensity by adjusting how much I add to my recipe. It’s not overly salty and has a nice taste. It definitely helps round out flavours for many dishes like soups, pot pie, gravy, etc..

Really love this. Will surely buy again

This vegan mix goes with everything you’re in the mood for. The jar doesn’t stay full long, we’re going to have to order more soon

Nice product - fresh tasting - very convenient for making a cup of hot broth .
