Stone Soup

Stone Soup is a minimalistic recipe featuring a large clean stone simmered in water to create a simple broth. The soup is gently cooked for 30-40 minutes with occasional stirring. Once the cooking time is complete, the stone is removed, and the broth can be served immediately or saved for later. This basic preparation is based on the folkloric concept rather than a traditional edible soup recipe.
