mmm, umami

A couple years ago I ordered mushroom Better Than Bouillon directly from the manufacturer because the co-op didn't reliably have it and it's awesome for cream of mushroom soup. While I was at it I also got other flavors I don't see in stores. The sofritos one is great for rehydrating soy TVP taco "meat." And I'm finding all sorts of uses for the sauteed onion one, mostly because I like onions but do not like to chop them. Today was just that, red beans, and beet greens, and it was delicious. At the co-op last week they didn't even have the vegetarian "chicken" and "beef" options they used to keep in stock, so I may need to put in another order and see if they have new fun flavors.

(Also, I need to find a creamy mushroom soup recipe without cream.)

(Also also, I have onion goggles so I can look super sexy when I do chop them.)
