I use those little onion soup packs, this looks easy enough and no preservatives!

WAY too much salt in that bouillon!

All those bouillon products are now available in sodium-free.

I've made that for years but I started substituting beef soup base for the bouillon. Less salt and richer flavor IMO

Re: Dry French Onion Soup Mix

Thanks for the recipe. I do use the packaged stuff occasionally, but I prefer to make my own. Get the salt level down and eliminate the sugar and substitute a natural sweetener. For extra flavoring I generally use Better than Bouillon which is a paste product. It does come in reduced salt varieties, but they still can be on the salty side. It has to be refrigerated once it is open, but for me it is a staple to have around and doesn't give recipes a "false" flavor.

Thank you, I will make this. It would be good for gluten free because the boughten has gluten in it.
