  • 3 parsley stems
  • 5 black pepper
  • 3 liters water - or enough to fill up the stock pan
  • olive oil

Instructions

  • Chop the vegetables coarsely into medium pieces.
  • Heat the oil over medium heat. First, sauté the onion, then the rest of the vegetables until golden.

  • As soon as it boils, turn the heat to a minimum and cook for approx. 45 min.
  • Wait to cool and strain.
  • The stock is ready to be used in recipes or stored.

Notes

  • The stock can be frozen in small containers or ice cubes. It lasts 3-6 months in the freezer or 5 days in the refrigerator in an airtight jar.
