Tried this knorr bouillon today, maybe my best yet.
RECIPE
-4 cloves garlic
– 1 Serrano pepper, whole
-1/2 white onion divided
-2 cans el patio yellow can
– 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
-2 tbls Knorr tomato bouillon
-6 fresh skinned Roma tomatoes(quartered and squeezed to drain excess liquid)
– 1/2 lime squeezes
Start blending the top six ingredients until decently smooth using only 1/4 white onion. Add tomatoes, rest of onion, and chop to desired consistency( I lean more towards smooth with lite chunks). Add lime at the end and salt if needed. The bouillon was plenty enough salt for me.
The result was a decent consistency with just enough heat and salt. Now to taste test with the fam,

I wouldn’t call it a *secret* ingredient but it def is a great ingredient to add! Especially the tomato flavored one, that’s next lvl
No garlic?
Yes, this was one ingredient that once I found it made every batch of salsa noticeably better
I tend to use the chicken one in tomato based salsas, and ironically use the tomato one in salsas that don’t otherwise contain tomato (I sometimes use a bit of both in these). Even in verde. It’s not enough to taste the tomato, but it gives it that umami kick.
Its really good.
I believe it was also revealed that on the borders legendary?) Salsa used the tomato chicken buillon as their secret ingredient as well
This also makes the best rice
Am I the only one who tastes this stuff immediately in salsa and feels like it gives it an “off” taste? Is this similar to what some people experience with cilantro?
This stuff is great. I use it more than I should.
If you want, you can just take a short cut and add MSG. It’s really what you’re getting from adding it. I say that with no judgment. I own straight MSG for this reason.
It is also the perfect addition to have restaurant style mexican rice.
Does amazon sell the Knorr with just tomato? I can only find the tomato+chicken one
It’s delicious but 2 tablespoons seems like way too much? I usually only use a teaspoon
Can you use it instead of kosher salt?
Thanks for sharing. I’ll give it a go.
Love this in the rice cooker with rice or quinoa
