Cream of Whatever - for Use in Recipes

When a recipe calls for Cream of Whatever soup concentrate, that stuff has lots of salt and garbage in it, so here's a slightly better replacement:

Ingredients

• 1c Dried Milk Powder
• 3/4c Cornstarch
• 1/4c Bouillon (veg or chicken, preferably low-sodium)
• 1/4c Dried Minced Onions
• 1tsp each Basil, Thyme, Pepper

Directions

1. In your hot dish recipe or whatever, mix 1/3c of this good stuff with 1c water in place of 1 can of goo - the og recipe says 1 1/4c water, but I've found that it's too wet, YMMV
2. If it's cream of mushroom or celery or another veg, you should probably add some of that vegetable as well, to get the rest of the flavor.  If cream of mushroom is your standard, Asian stores often have dried mushrooms you could add to the mix

Original recipe: No idea - I'm reading this off the side of the big jar I've been making this stuff in for years, lol
