It’s always a pity to throw away the beet tops, carrot; the leaves and stalk from cauliflower and broccoli; sticks from bundles of parsley and cilantro; the root crops, which are currently nowhere to apply, but they will soon spoil, etc., and I developed the following method of disposal of this stuff.
I my, dried and neatly folded in a reusable Ikea sealed package in the freezer. When it is reaching a critical mass, I put it all in a pan, add 1 carrot, 1 onion whole a few cloves of garlic, stick of celery, pepper 5 PCs. Bay leaf a couple of pieces, a pinch of salt, pour cold water to it a few inches covered the herbs and vegetables, and cook until boiling. Then reduce the fire and simmered for 10-15 minutes.
Try the broth, if he was very rich, you can add water, again bring to a boil and turn off. Cool with the lid open, strain through a sieve. The broth is ready!
If he doesn’t need me all directly after preparation, then poured into plastic containers of 200 – 500 ml and put them in the freezer and then use as needed.
For this soup you can cook any cereal, to cook the risotto, soups, sauces. Try to replace water in the recipe savory dishes such vegetable broth, and it will sparkle with new flavors.
