Good Stock for Soups

A good stock is so easy to make and handy to have, as it enriches all recipes.

Use your leftover chicken, turkey, or meat bones, and let them simmer in enough water to cover for about 3 hours. Add onions, celery, carrot, garlic, ginger, peppercorn, salt, and parsley. Remove from heat and let cool before straining through a sieve. Either keep in the refrigerator of freeze until you need to use. To store in different sizes, use ice cube trays, small or large plastic bags, or plastic containers. The Camerons 20-quart Stockpot makes this preparation easy for the everyday Mom, as it is big enough to make enough stock for a month at a time.
