Title: Chicken Style Seasoning

From:    Michelle Dick 

1 1/3 cup nutritional yeast flakes
3 T onion powder
2 1/2 t garlic powder
1 T salt
1 tsp celery seed
2 1/2 T Italian seasoning
2 T parsley, dried
Blend smooth all ingredients except parsley.  Stir in parsley.  Store
in airtight container.
Notes:
Use this seasoning to make a quick chicken-like stock out of water
when you have no veggie stock on hand.  Excellent for flavoring rice
and as a soup base.
Make a very simple, easy, and good-tasting gravy by mixing water,
seasoning, and miso (I like the dark brown rice miso).  Typical
proportions: 1.5 cups water, 1 T seasoning, 2 t miso.
Increase/decrease seasonings according your your taste.  Right before
serving gravy, mix some starch (I frequently use potato starch) in a
bit of water till well-blended and add to gravy to thicken (do this
over medium heat).  Add starch until you reach desired thickness.
Quick, easy, and surprisingly tastey.
