bouillon cube
Dehydrated flavor block
A bouillon cube is a small, compressed block of dehydrated meat or vegetable stock, seasonings, and salt.
Dissolved in hot water, it produces a quick broth for soups, sauces, or cooking liquid: I added a bouillon cube to the rice for extra flavor.
Also called a stock cube.
