This recipe goes with Creamy Lima Bean Soup With Pasta, Mexican Butternut Squash Soup, Basque Rice-and-Kale Chowder, Country-French Vegetable Soup, Lentil Soup, Tortellini, White Bean, and Spinach Soup
Ingredients:
3 cups chopped onion
2 cups chopped carrot
2 cups chopped celery
2 cups chopped parsnip
1 cup chopped leek
12 black peppercorns
4 unpeeled garlic cloves
3 bay leaves
1 basil sprig
1 thyme sprig
1 rosemary sprig
1 parsley sprig
5 quarts cold water
1 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients except salt in an 8-quart stockpot. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, for 3 hours. Strain mixture through a cheesecloth-lined colander into a large bowl, pressing vegetables with the back of a spoon to remove as much liquid as possible; discard solids. Stir in salt.
2. Note: Store broth in refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Pour 2 cups broth into freezer-safe containers; freeze for up to 3 months.
