Court Bouillon

There is no difference between bouillon, broth and stock according to Larousse Gastronomique. In practice, and in today's English usage, a broth tends to be something that you would serve to someone to eat on its own, while bouillon is - gasp - something you buy in tins or make from cubes. Much tinned bouillon is actually made from dried bouillon.
