Good soup starts with good stock. Making a sensational vegetable stock out of the items cut off to make the soup that would normally head to a compost bin. Say What? Onion skins, carrot tops or peels from skin, nasty celery ends, tomato cores, garlic skins, and whatever else doesn’t cut it into the edible part of the soup. In other words don’t throw it out (if it came from the ground and is Real Food.)
- Place all the carrot tops, potato peels, celery scraps, onion, and garlic skin in water to cover.
- Simmer the Souper Stock on low for a few hours while the cut vegetables and beans wait.
- Strain the vegetables after the simmer and use for your favorite soup recipes – with or without meat.
Enjoy!
