For a vegetarian version, substitute the beef bouillon with mushroom bouillon or a concentrated vegetable broth. Adjust the amount of balsamic vinegar to taste. Start with less and add more for a tangier flavor. The molasses adds sweetness and color; use blackstrap molasses for a deeper, more robust flavor. This substitute can also be used as a marinade, but be mindful of the sodium content from the bouillon.

May 3, 2024I was skeptical, but this actually works! My stir-fries now have that familiar savory flavor without the soy.

Mar 5, 2024I found the beef bouillon a bit too strong for my taste. Next time, I'll try a lower-sodium version or mushroom bouillon.
