Stock gel (liquid stock concentrate in individual portions) is a semi-liquid concentrated stock product used to make stock or add flavour directly to dishes. Like stock cubes, it is very high in sodium per 100g, though a standard pot (~28g) dissolved in water contributes roughly similar sodium to a stock cube. It often provides a more rounded, fresher flavour than dried cubes.
A single stock pot dissolved in 500ml boiling water produces a well-flavoured stock suitable for risottos, soups, and pan sauces. Use reduced-salt versions when available, particularly in dishes where the liquid reduces significantly during cooking, concentrating the sodium further.

* % Daily Value is the proportion of an adult
EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) supplied by 100g of this food.
NRVs are the labelling standard — the same basis as the “%RI” figures printed on
food packaging — so these percentages are directly comparable with a shop label.
They are a single adult figure and do not vary by age or sex, which is why they
sometimes differ from UK dietary reference values: the NRV for vitamin C is 80mg
where the UK RNI is 40mg. When Nutriofia assesses your own intake in the
reports and trackers, it uses the age- and sex-specific UK values instead.
Fibre is shown without a percentage. Our fibre values use the UK
Englyst NSP method, while the published 30g daily goal is an AOAC figure — the two
are measured differently and a single percentage would mislead.
