Are these considered "vegetable flakes"? I have a soup recipe that calls for them and was going to use these.

I would say they qualify yes. I don't know that they are flakes, they do plump up nicely into petite diced vegetables, but they definitely seem like they would fit the bill in a soup recipe.

This product is slightly different than regular vegetable flakes in that it contains more ingredients than is typical in regular vegetable flakes. That being said though it could work if you were to remove the peas and such before using it. It is of course up to your individual taste. I find this product a bit more naturally spicy than regular dehydrated vegetable stock. It does have less of an onion base than regular vegetable stock as well and I personally like that because it isn't so overwhelming in an onion taste. I would say it could easily be used in leu of regular vegetable flakes.

Yes, I use them to make chicken and noodle soup and beef soup. I have used veg. flakes for forty years because it gives a good seasoning taste for your soups

I would say yes, although most of the veggies I would describe as chunky ( they're not that thin sliced or diced) and peas are whole, remember hydration is key for this product... Very tasty and satisfying!

I feel like they would be the equivalent of any dried food. I do recommend reconstituting the fkakes 5 minutez orkess

These are real dehydrated vegetables. I have used them three times in chicken and beef vegetable soups. I also add pearl barley, Harmony House minced cabbage and Harmony House dried Shallots. For me, I add a bit at a time...1 Tbspn to 1/8 cup measure depending on how much soup you are cooking. If I were you I would begin with small measurements with your recipes. I have 70-year old hands now and cutting up vegetables is hard for me. I LOVE this product and with my spices, my tweaks, and my kitchen love, my soups turn out great. . .so says my hubby of 50 years. Happy Cooking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes they are. They are an assortment of vegetables that are dehydrated and put together. These are great for soups, gravies, stews, chowders, anything that you want added flavor and color to. Spaghetti sauces also. They are great. I found them locally in the health food section that charge very high prices. This mix available from Amazon is well worth the cost and it's delivered to your door. I love it and use it a great deal when I cook. Hope this helps.

Hi. I have these for ice cream. But believe they would work great for hot soup The lids appear to be vented with a second layer beneath. Hope this helps!

They don't really have any distinctive flavor of their own; they absorb the flavor of whatever dish they are added to. I have used them in the traditional way for hot and sour soup, but have also added very small pieces to spaghetti sauce to add an interesting texture.

No. These spoons are like mini-ladles. The soup is taken from the ladle end. It's a perfect portion - a little deeper than a tablespoon. Great for wonton and chicken soup as well as chowders.

They are plastic but they are extremely durable and i have never had a problem with them. I make soup by pouring boiling liquid in them and they hold up just fine. My biggest advise is that if you are using something that could possibly stain it ex. tomato soup then clean it as soon as possible since cleaning is so easy.

It's wrong. They are not organic. Even the Bob's Red Mill website doesn't show any organic potato flakes on their site. Since they make numerous organic products, I'm sure it would say it on the pkg. I wish they were. We eat almost all organic foods. These are a spurge for us. Basically like our take-out night since we don't eat any of that stuff (we're gluten, dairy and chemical preservative free). They are easy and tasty. I add s&p and avocado oil and a but of garlic powder and they're great!

Yes, they are microwavable; however, I would not take them from the fridge to the microwave. I've cooked vegetables and warned up many other items like soup and spaghetti.

Yes, they handle heated things well. I prefer my soup in ceramics though so i mostly use these for salads, fruits popcorn, and ral.

if your asking about the potato soup I would say yes but I would use skim or 1 percent as the soup is pretty thick .

As a chemist I would not count on these as being reasonably pure. I use them as an alternative to lead as weights of high density. You may be able to approach an industrial manufacturer for some samples.

I think they are the size you want. There are a lot of crumbly flakes but for the most part they are large flakes.

I am using pellets and it is working fine. Sorry, have no suggestion for the flakes type food.

The flakes are made from all natural dehydrated potatoes. It could mean that the all natural and organic are the same at Bob's.

Yes, they are. That way you can use them for sauces for spaghetti or vegetarian dishes. Recipes are found at www.drmcdougall.com

Yes, you can use these for hot and sour soup if you can't get fresh ones but you also need shitakes. The soup takes both. These take a very long time to rehydrate and not all of them will be soft -- some will come out very leather-tough so reconstitute enough to allow for those that you have to discard. Also remember that these are huge when reconstituted.

They are plastic and they don't works well with uncooked vegetable like carrots, butternut squash, potatoes ... But they works well when they are cooked. You have to spray vegetable cutter with PAM or any other cooking spray before use it if you don't want your vegetables stick on it!.

My friend dehydrates zucchini slices to use in soups and even after cooking two days they hold together nicely so I have started dehydrating them to use in my soups because with them in the vegetable soup I didn't miss the meat... I am going to try doing that with the noodle cuts too
