Food for Thought
Where’s the Beef?!
In this recipe we use something called beef bouillon powder, which is basically a liquid beef stock that’s dried out to make a superflavorful powder. It is typically mixed with water and used as a base for soups and sauces. Beef bouillon powder may seem like a weird thing to add to your French Onion Dip Mix, but there’s a good reason for it! French Onion Dip is based on the flavors of French onion soup, which is made from onions and beef stock. Since we can’t put liquid beef stock into our dip, we turned to beef bouillon powder. Bouillon is sometimes packaged in cubes, but we found cubes difficult to break up and add to our dip mix. Bouillon powder mixes easily with the other dried spices and incorporates evenly into sour cream to make our yummy dip!
