Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 medium carrot, peeled and chopped
- 2 stalks celery stalk, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 leaf bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon thyme, dried
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8 cups water
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
Add the bay leaf, thyme, and black peppercorns to the pot, stirring to combine with the sautéed vegetables.
Pour in the 8 cups of water and increase the heat to high. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Once the broth is simmering, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let it simmer gently for 30 to 35 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
After simmering, remove the pot from the heat. Use a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to strain the broth, removing the vegetables and spices.
Return the strained broth to the pot, adding the chopped parsley and salt. Stir well and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the broth hot as is, or use it as a base for other soups or recipes.
