Question 1

Do they have to be cooked?,and if so for how long?

Accepted Answer

Hi Eduardo. I did a review on this product. It's pretty detailed. However, I can help u I think. U can reconstitute these flakes in water or a liquid of your choice to soften them. You can use them straight from the jar in whatever food your cooking as long as there's some liquid for steam or softening. You can also grind these in a grinder to make evn smaller & easier digestible & even open up more of the flavors. I use the grinds as meat ( chicken, beef, pork, fish etc.) rub. I use this with other dry ingredients to rub on & season meats & other foods. U can also use the grounded flakes ( which is almost a dense powder ) to add to healthy smoothies if that's your thing. It's very versatile. If u want to just eat them as is, u probably should soften them first in liquid. U would put them in a bowl & cover with liquid & let them sit like that for about 20 minutes or so. Times depends on how quickly they soften up. Or however soft u want them. So, your answer is defined above but shorter is reconstitute before use unless you're going to add them directly to a recipe. I think you'll really like the convenience of this mix. It's a good find. I highly recommend it.  I hope this helps u some.

Question 2

Why aren't the cooking directions on either label?

Accepted Answer

Mine arrived without directions as well.  However, the direction are now up on the Amazon product's site.  It states to add six parts water to one part of product.   I'm using mine to make a single cup of soup.  I use 2 cups of water to 1/3 cup of mix.

Question 3

Are there tomatoes in this mix?  It is hard to tell by looking at it.

Accepted Answer

I sent my Purchase back because the seal was open. I ended up ordering veg. flakes from "DENVER SPICE" company. I was buying TONES veg.flakes for 30 yrs. and then Tones stopped making them which was very disappointing because they were the best on the market, so for the last 10 yrs. I have been going on line to buy them which most  do have tomatoes in the mix but still have a good flavor. You just have to try different brands until u find the one you like best.

Question 4

Some of these dried veggy soup product are high in carrots or some other veggy instead of a nice even blend. It's hard to tell from the picture.

Accepted Answer

Nice mix/blend. I'm ordering my second jar today. I use it for soup but it is also handy for just throwing a handful into other things. I just made rice in beef bullion with golden raisins and a fistful of these veggies. Delicious and painlessly added veggies (my nemesis).
