Stock cubes, chicken

Chicken stock cubes are concentrated, dry ingredients used to make stock by dissolving them in water. The figures here describe the cubes as sold, rather than prepared stock. Per 100g, they contain 15g of fat, 15g of protein and 41g of salt. Salt is therefore a substantial component of the product.

Salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Adding water reduces the concentration of salt in the prepared stock but does not change the total amount added from the cube. The amount used and any other salty ingredients will affect the salt content of the finished dish. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
