- Continue to add water to maintain boiling level.
- After 1 hour has passed, strain liquid and return to heat to boil.
- Reduce to 3 cups stock and reserve (It is a good idea to keep the stock hot for adding to the skillet later in the recipe).

- Stir well and saute' on high heat until onion begins to wilt and moisture from the vegetables has evaporated.

- Stir until completely blended, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
