Broths

What is broth?

Broth is basically an extract obtained by slow cooking the ingredients used. It is also used to prepare soups, sauces, but also to flavour various dishes.

Who invented broths.

The first dehydrated broths under the MAGGI brand saw the light of day in 1892. Originally they were in the form of capsules and from 1906 granules. Broths brought a real revolution to the kitchens of the time, because instead of endless boiling, it was possible to prepare tasty meals for the whole family in a fraction of the time. The first cubes came on the market in 1908 and in many countries they are still in this traditional form today!

Types of broths.

There are a plethora of broths. The most commonly encountered are the various types of meat and vegetable broths for general use. Other types are broths for making a specific soup or sauce. In Asian cuisine, for example, broths for the preparation of Pho soup, tamarind soups, etc.

Where to buy and our Tip:

For Asian broths, we always recommend reading the instructions for use. Some broths are also used as marinades for meat, so the use may be different from what we are normally used to.
