Sometimes it’s fun to step out of the everyday routine and explore new flavors to give a twist to cooking. These exotic dishes we recommend are ideal for their easy preparation and their star ingredient: Knorr® Chicken Broth.
Couscous
Couscous is actually a form of wheat pasta (known as semolina) traditionally served as a “bed” for various stews. Normally, couscous has been pre-steamed and dried, which means it takes only a few minutes to prepare. You can make this dish more flavorful and with a better texture by adding a cube of Knorr® Chicken Broth to the water. Boil 1 ½ cups of water with its respective Knorr® Chicken Broth, add 1 cup of couscous, cover, and remove from heat after half an hour.
Curry
This typical dish from India refers to a mixture of spices and herbs. Now, you can prepare a dry version, but the most common and sought-after is the soupy alternative, and one of the best ways to give it a flavor boost is to prepare it with Knorr® Chicken Broth. All you need to do is include a cube of Knorr® Chicken Broth in the spice mix, from there you can add all the required spices such as cumin, pepper, paprika, salt, anise, etc. Yellow curry goes best with chicken or pork.
Sweet and Sour Soup
Sweet and sour soup, that brew that is simultaneously salty, sweet, and spicy. It’s a staple in any Chinese restaurant and is one of the most ordered dishes in these establishments. It’s light and a perfect appetizer before enjoying a hearty meal. Use Knorr® Chicken Broth as a flavor booster for this curious preparation, and the result will be delicious; you just need to include a cube in the water and oil used as a base. This soup recipe includes bamboo shoots, which are generally sold canned in the ethnic food aisle of your local store, but you can substitute them with asparagus. Rice noodles and soybean sprouts are also ideal.
Gazpacho
Now that spring is upon us, we can start preparing some dishes that don’t have to be hot. Therefore, gazpacho, the famous cold tomato soup from Spain, is a different and delicious alternative. The recipe often calls for just water or vegetable broth, but a bit of Knorr® Chicken Broth gives it a much deeper flavor dimension. The recipe includes one kilogram of ripe tomatoes, 1 green pepper, 1 clove of garlic, 3 teaspoons of olive oil, and white wine vinegar to taste. You just need to add half a cube of Knorr® Chicken Broth, and you’ll notice the difference.
Velouté Sauce
This typical French sauce can be used to cover fish, chicken, or meat, and although its base is very simple, adding Knorr® Chicken Broth makes it a family favorite. Making velouté starts with a basic mixture of equal parts flour and butter, which is then thickened with chicken broth; that’s it. So all you need to do is mix a couple of cups of water with a cube of Knorr® Chicken Broth, and once that’s done, you can try any number of variations, including adding white wine, tomato puree, or vinegar to suit your taste.
