Ingredients
.25 cup Olive Oil, Salad Or Cooking
2 large Onion, Raw
4 clove Garlic, Raw
3 large Carrot, Raw, Large, 7.25 - 8.5’’ Long
3 large Celery, Raw, Large Stalk, 11 - 12’’ Long
8 cup Water, Municipal
4 tbsp Thyme, Fresh
2 tbsp Rosemary Leaf, Fresh
1 tsp Bay Leaf, Crumbled
4 tbsp Parsley, Raw
1 tsp Pepper, Black, Ground
Instructions
Add olive oil to a large stockpot and heat over medium-high heat. Add onions, garlic, carrots, and celery to heated olive oil and sauté for 5 or 6 minutes, or until the flavor is released.
Add enough water to cover the vegetables, followed by thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, parsley and peppercorns. Heat mixture over medium-high heat until it just about boils, and then reduce heat to medium-low. Give it a quick stir and simmer, uncovered, for about an hour. (The exact amount of time doesn’t matter - the longer it simmers, the better the flavor will be).
Place a stainless steel colander over a large pot in the sink. Carefully pour contents of stockpot into the colander to separate out the solids from the liquid. Discard solids and allow liquid to cool completely before transferring to freezer safe-storage containers. Freeze until ready to use.
