Granulated vegetable seasoning for professional catering
Ristoris granulated vegetable seasoning is a versatile preparation for professional kitchens, supplied in a practical 1 kg resealable tub. It performs two jobs in one product: a vegetable stock base for soups, risottos and braises, and a granulated seasoning to sprinkle directly over dishes, vegetables and steamed greens. With 20-22 g per litre of water you obtain a ready, balanced vegetable broth in about 4 minutes, making it a reliable, high-yield ally for high-volume service.
What it is
This is a dehydrated vegetable seasoning preparation: a blend of salt, dehydrated vegetables, vegetable extracts and a flavour enhancer that delivers the savoury, rounded note of a classic Italian household stock. It belongs to the broad family of granular bouillon preparations that professional Italian kitchens have used for decades to standardise the flavour base of soups, sauces and rice dishes, freeing the brigade from preparing fresh stock for every service while keeping a consistent result.
The producer
The product is made by Ristoris SRL in Broni, in the province of Pavia, in the heart of Lombardy. Ristoris is an Italian company specialised in bases, stocks, soups and seasonings for the HoReCa sector, with a range of more than twenty product lines built around carefully selected raw materials and seasonal processing. Production takes place in plants certified to the strict international ISO, BRC and IFS food-safety standards, with direct control over the supply chain and a focus on consistent organoleptic quality.
Sensory profile
The granules are dry and free-flowing, with an even, pale colour and visible specks of dehydrated vegetables. Once dissolved, the seasoning releases a clean, savoury aroma of cooked vegetables (onion, carrot, celery and parsley) with a full, balanced umami body. It is designed to support and lift the natural flavour of ingredients rather than dominate them, giving cooks of every level a dependable savoury foundation.

Professional uses
Use it as a vegetable stock base for risotto, replacing meat broth in vegetarian preparations (about 22 g per litre). Add it to minestrone, vegetable soups and veloutes to round out the savoury base. Sprinkle it directly over roasted or steamed vegetables, gratins and oven bakes as a finishing seasoning. Stir it into tomato and ragu sauces to deepen flavour, and use it to season fillings, meatballs and stuffed vegetables. Because dosing is constant, it helps standardise the flavour base across every service and every member of the brigade.
Pairings
It pairs naturally with rice for risotto, with dried and fresh pasta in soups and brothy dishes, and with seasonal vegetables. In a professional pantry it sits alongside other Ristoris granular preparations such as meat, mushroom and fish stock bases, letting the kitchen build a complete library of flavour bases from a single, trusted supplier.
Who it is for
It is designed for restaurants, pizzerias, canteens, caterers, hotels and event kitchens that need a consistent, high-yield savoury base. The 1 kg format and the carton of 12 make it especially suited to operations preparing large quantities, where dosing precision and cost control matter.
