We like Swanson’s organic vegetable broth, and while shopping quickly, that’s the one we usually grab. It didn’t surprise us that it was among the top three vegetable broths chosen by our pals at Cooks Illustrated. What interested us was that they also gave top honors to two more — Orrington Farms Vegan Chicken Flavored Broth (add water to the powder); and Better Than Bouillon Vegetable Base. (Faith puts a teaspoon of it in hot water for a fast, warming soup at her desk.)
In terms of price, the Orrington and Better Than Bouillon win out, but we like the flavor of Swanson’s. You can see the results of the entire test in the most recent issue of Cooks Illustrated.
