Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
In a stockpot, stir together all the ingredients. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat (to prevent cloudiness, don’t let the broth reach a boil). Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Strain the broth into an airtight container, discarding the trimmings. Cover and refrigerate so the flavors blend. Reheat before serving.
Cook’s Tip
Step 2
Keep a large airtight plastic bag in the freezer and use it for collecting vegetable peels and trimmed ends. When it’s time to make this broth, your veggies will be waiting.
