Oxo stock cubes are used to flavour BBQ marinades, sauces, casseroles, stews, gravy, pies and more. They contain wheatflour (for thickening), salt, yeast extract, cornflour (for thickening), colouring, flavour enhancers (monosodium glutamate.... YUM!), beef fat, flavouring, dried beef bonestock, sugar, onion and pepper extract)

You simply have to unfold the flaps on either side of the cube and the packet will turn into a flat sachet shape in which you can neatly crumble the cube inside. Next, rip it open and you'll be able to easily pour the crumbled powder into the dish you are cooking.Sep 11, 2018
