Converting bouillon to broth is simple.
Four(4) tablespoons is equal to 1/4 cup.
A bouillon cube is 1 teaspoon - there are three(3) teaspoons in a tablespoon.
Therefore, 12 teaspoons in a 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons)
It actually depends on the strength you desire you broth to be. The usual recipe is 1 teaspoon of bouillon plus one cup of hot water. Using 1/4 cup of bouillon, you would need 12 cups of water more or less, depending on how strong or weak you want you broth. Unless you have a specific recipe that calls for this much bouillon, I suggest you try using one(1) tablespoon at a time with 2-1/2 cups of water (adding more water afterwards), until you find the taste you're desiring.

One tablespoon of beef bouillon typically equals about one cup of beef broth. If you need to substitute beef bouillon for beef broth, you can dissolve one tablespoon of bouillon in one cup of hot water to create a similar flavor. Adjust the quantity based on your specific recipe and personal taste preferences.
You can substitute beef bouillon cubes or granules dissolved in water for condensed beef broth. You can also use a combination of beef stock or broth with a concentrated beef flavor paste for a similar result.
Basically, beef broth that has had all the water boiled away. I do not know enough to explain in more detail but bouillon is essentially a "just-add-water" broth.
Both beef and chicken cubes are a great way to add the flavor of beef or chicken broth to your dish without having to make a full pot of broth. They are also a quick and easy option if you only need a small amount of broth for your recipe. AustralianBoneBroth
beef bouillon
Physically yes. There isn't very much of a chemical difference between the two (i.e. your dish won't explode if you substitute beef for chicken). However, your dish will taste very different, as beef broth is generally heavier and saltier tasting.
You can use vegetable bouillon granules as a substitute for beef bouillon granules.
I like bouillon.
Each bouillon cube will make one cup of broth. So to make one cup of broth, you'll only need one cube. If your recipe calls for more than one cup of broth, just add a cube for each cup it calls for. Make sure you avoid adding extra salt to the recipe until you've tasted it, as bouillon cubes are often on the salty side due to the concentration of the flavor.
Another name for Bouillon, in French cuisine, is simply a broth, or clear soup. The best translation into English is 'stock', which is what any recipe will call for. You need to specify the base : beef, chicken, fish, etc.
To make one quart of chicken broth, use 4 cups of water to 4 teaspoons of chicken bouillon. I would use a little more water to account for evaporation. In my experience, the broth made from bouillon is a bit on the salty side. If a recipe calls for more salt, I would wait and taste the dish before adding more.
Substitutes for cubed beef stock include: 1) Fresh beef stock (boil beef bones in salted water, with a few fresh vegetables and seasonings) 2) Beef stock concentrate 3) Frozen beef stock (available in some gourmet shops) 4) Canned beef stock
