do u use them , if so which ones.

the marco pierre white Knorr ones are very good, as well as OXO

ill assume most do not use the meat ones for religous reasons, but there are vegetarian cubes.

are there any halal cubes?

Hi there.. I use stock cubes only when cooking sauces or soups- Knorr are really good but the halal ones are Maggi- theyre widely available especially in the Middle East...happy cooking!

I use the following stock cubes:

Asda own brand veggie ones-when boiling pastas etc

Fish stock cubes (I think there from tesco...) for anything fishy

Halal Beef stock cubes (from our local desi store, imported Halal) for everything...including daals and soups

Knorr chicken stock cubes (from our local desi store, imported Halal) I add them to loads of things-daals, chicken dishes etc...

Pilau stock cubes-in rice and noodle dishes

There's loads of stock cubes on the market-Maggie do a cube (is it a seasoning cube?!) which has a serving suggestion as a drink too. Might give it a bash...

I'm not a fan of stock cubes. You can get halal cubes...try any asian grocery store.

i also use the asda own brand they are good.

oxo are my favourite, also the liquid oxo in a bottle. u can get oxo chinese cube and mexican cube.

i have soup made from stock cubes, throw in some veggies and maybe cheese, garlic you have an easy fast soup.

Yes they are salty, that is the point they add flavour, pepper, spices.

Dont add too much additional salt if your using a stock cube.
