Does the carton need to be refrigerated before opening?
Unopened cartons can be stored in a cool, dry pantry. Once opened, the carton should be refrigerated and resealed using the built-in spout to maintain freshness.
What's the difference between vegetable stock and vegetable broth?
Vegetable stock is typically made by simmering vegetables, herbs, and spices and is used as a flavorful base for soups, grains, and sauces. Vegetable broth is often seasoned and can be enjoyed on its own. Kitchen Basics Organic Vegetable Stock is designed to function as both, substituting 1:1 for stock, broth, or bouillon in any recipe.
