November 1, 2015 at 11:01 amI’ll have to try it this way. In the past I’ve always made a roux first with the butter and flour and browned it before adding beef broth. But this looks much less time consuming.

May 14, 2017 at 8:50 amI was wondering if I can use beef broth instead of the bullion? I’m allergic to msg. If so how much broth would I use? Thank you

October 23, 2019 at 7:21 pmLoved it! I only had bouillon cubes so I guessed and used 2, also used the onion powder instead of chopped onion out of convenience. Turned out AMAZING!!!
