Homemade Vegetable Broth

April 28, 2015 By Hana 4 Comments

Homemade Vegetable Broth

Lately everyone has been talking about the goodness and nutritional benefits of proper old fashioned homemade broth. So I have decided to make my own version with my favourite vegetables and herbs. The basic broth is made with carrots, celery, onion, garlic and bay leaves. In addition I have also added leeks, ginger, turmeric, parsley and rosemary to my broth recipe. I have included fresh turmeric root because of its health benefits,  but you might omit the turmeric if it’s not to your taste.

Making vegetable broth is rather simple and doesn’t require too much time or preparation. Choose organic vegetables if you can, wash them really well, chop everything up, cover with filtered water and boil for about one hour. Once ready, strain, cool down and store. You can add your broth in small amounts to your favourite soup and stew recipes for added goodness.

    So, I’ve finally put that piece of turmeric root you gave me to good use and made your broth! While simmering away it filled the air with the most delicious smell :-) I used the broth for a kale, potato and sausage stew for the sharp toothed members of the Franke household and kept some aside for me and added some lentils and potatoes. Really good! Thank you for this great recipe. I will make sure I have some broth in the freezer from now on for other soups & stews… Tx
