Ingredients:
- 1 large leek, white part only , cut in half lengthwise, rinsed well between the layers, and cut into 2 inch pieces
- 4 celery ribs, cut into 2 inch pieces
- salt , to taste
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 450°.
- Place the vegetables in a large roasting pan; pour the olive oil over them, add the salt, and use a spatula to toss well to combine.
- Place pan on the top shelf in the oven and roast until the vegetables are just beginning to turn brown, about 30 minutes.
- Transfer roasted vegetables to a large stockpot; add in the parsley and water; place over high heat.
- When the water boils, decrease heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and simmer for 1 hour.
- Remove from heat, let stand and cool to room temperature.
- Strain the broth through a large sieve or colander into a bowl or plastic container; use a wooden spoon to press the vegetables against the sieve to extract as much of the broth as possible.
- Place the container in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled and the fat has hardened on the surface of the broth, at least 8 hours or preferably overnight.
- Use a slotted metal spoon or spatula to remove all the fat.
- Divide the broth into two or three smaller containers and refrigerate or freeze.
- Will keep in refrigerator for up to 5 days; keeps in freezer for up to 3 months.
