Ingredients
- 4 liters water 17 cups, cold
- 2 potato medium size
- 2 onion white, medium size
- 2 carrot medium size
- 4 celery stalks
- 1 tomato big or 4-5 little tomatoes
- 4 bay leaf
- 3 cloves
- 5 black peppercorns
- 5 parsley sprigs
Instructions
- To make your vegetable broth, start by peeling the carrots and removing the ends. Then cut them into fairly large pieces. Peel the potatoes and cut them into large pieces as well.
- Peel the onions, then remove the lower part and cut them in half. Insert the cloves into the onion flesh like a pincushion so that they do not get lost during cooking.
- Wash and chop the celery. Wash the parsley. Finally, wash and cut the tomato in half.
- Place all the vegetables in a fairly large pot. Cover with cold water.
- Cover the pot with a lid and cook the broth over high heat at first. When it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook slowly for 1 hour.
- When cooked, drain the vegetables with a slotted spoon. You can save the cooked vegetables for other delicious recipes.
- The vegetable broth is ready. You can strain it further using a cloth to remove all impurities.
