I've never even questioned this until yesterday when I was making some soup and my mum queried my overuse of stock cubes.
On a box of Oxo it says to dissolve one cube in 190ml water. If I need a pint (approx 568ml) then do I make it with three stock cubes (3x190= 570ml)?
My mum said she ever only uses one regardless of how much stock she needs, but then the concentration wouldn't be right and it wouldn't be as flavoursome surely?
So who's right? Do you just use one stock cube regardless of how much you need to make? Or do you increase the stock cubes in proportion to the volume of stock you require?
Please don't comment telling me to make my own etc etc. I have a one year old so as much as I'd love to make my own I just don't have the time.
