Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 1 bunch of soup vegetables
  • 1 large onion(s)
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 4 allspice berries
  • 4 peppercorns
  • 4 cloves
  • 4 cardamom pods
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 sprig(s) of thyme
  • 1 sprig(s) rosemary
  • 800 g beef bones or chicken carcasses
  • 1 ½ liters of water

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 15 minutes

Clean and finely chop the soup vegetables. Peel and finely chop the onion. Combine all ingredients—don’t forget the bones if using meat or chicken broth—in a pot with about 1.5 liters of cold water until everything is covered. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer over low heat for about 2 hours. Skim off any foam that forms with a slotted spoon. Pour the broth through a sieve or cloth and collect the liquid. Degrease the broth if necessary. I use organic products for bones and vegetables.
