About Soup, chicken broth or bouillon, dry
Chicken bouillon in dry form — whether as a powder, granules or a pressed cube — is concentrated chicken stock with salt, fat and seasoning, designed to dissolve into a quick cup of broth or to season soups, risottos, sauces and braises. It's one of the most-used flavor shortcuts in home and restaurant kitchens alike.
As a concentrate it shows about 267 calories per 100 grams, with roughly 17 grams of protein and 14 grams of fat in that amount. Those figures describe the dry product in bulk, not a serving: a cube or a rounded teaspoon, just a few grams, makes a full cup of broth.
The standout number is sodium — around 24,000 milligrams per 100 grams — so even a single cube can push a cup of broth past 800 to 1,000 milligrams of sodium. It delivers a lot of savory flavor for almost no calories once diluted, but it's a major salt source, and low-sodium versions exist for people who cook with it regularly.
