Ingredients
- 6 corn cobs husked and kernels removed
- 2 celery stalks cut in quarters
- 1 medium onion peeled and quartered
- 2 cloves garlic peeled and crushed
- 4 prigs Fresh parsley
- ¼ teaspoon whole black peppercorns about 10 peppercorns
- 10 cups water
Instructions
- Place the corn cobs, celery, onion, garlic, parsley and peppercorns in a stock pot or large Dutch oven.
- Pour the water into the pot. Bring it to a boil over high heat. As soon as it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it simmer for at least one hour or for up to 2 hours. Off the heat, let it cool for an hour or so.
- Meanwhile, place a fine mesh strainer in a large bowl. When cool enough to handle, carefully strain corn stock and gently press down on the vegetables to extract any remaining liquid.
- Pour into jars and let it cool (uncovered) on the kitchen counter for 30 minutes. Discard solids.
- When cooled, cover tightly with the lid, label and date before placing the jars in the refrigerator or freezing them for later use.
