Homemade Asian Stock Concentrate: Rich, Flavorful Base for Soups, Stir-Fries & More.

Creating your own Asian stock concentrate at home, especially with the help of a Thermomix, is a fantastic way to add deep, authentic flavours to your cooking without relying on store-bought options filled with preservatives, artificial flavors, and other unwanted additives. This homemade concentrate is crafted purely from natural ingredients, so you can enjoy a rich, umami-packed base for soups, stir-fries, and marinades while knowing exactly what's going into your food. Not only does it taste fresher and more vibrant than commercial concentrates, but it's also a healthier, cleaner option for adding depth and complexity to your favourite Asian dishes.

I made this recipe years and years ago, and I can attribute this idea to a Sydney Thermomix consultant who separates her ‘stock options’(don’t you love it?) into Red, Green and Other…This is quite spicy but for a mild version, reduce or completely leave out the chillies.

Use 1 or 2 tablespoons straight from the jar into stir fries, noodle dishes, anything that has that basic 'Asian' flavour profile going on. It will be a great boost to all those dishes, and rather than using the basic Cookidoo version of Veggie stock paste, this is going to do a lot more for your food! 

Try it with all or any of these for starters, then get creative and see what else works:

Thai Velvet Chicken Stir Fry

Chicken Basil Stir Fry

Beef Basil Stir Fry

Tenina’s Asian Beef Salad

Skinnymixer's Asian Herb Salad

Asian Ginger Fish & Vegies
