- .RH MOD.RECIPES-SOURCE BEEF-STOCK SP "25 Feb 86" 1986
- .RZ "BEEF STOCK" "A basic brown soup stock"
- This is a similar stock to the one Jeff Smith describes in
- .I "The Frugal Gourmet."
- I usually use bones with meat on them; he recommends meatless ones.
- .IH "About 16 cups" "About 4 liters"
- .IG "5 lb" "soup bones" "3 kg"
- .IG "1 bunch" "carrots"
- .IG "1 bunch" "celery"
- .IG "3" "yellow onions,"
- unpeeled
- .IG "20 cups" "water" "5 l"
- .PH
- .SK 1
- Brown the bones in a heavy pan if there is meat on them. If there is no
- meat, roast the bones in a
- .TE 400 200
- oven for two hours, being careful not to burn them.
- .SK 2
- Chop the carrots, celery, and onions. The onion skin will add to the color
- of the stock.
- .SK 3
- Place all of the ingredients in a heavy stock pot
- and simmer for 12 hours.
- Add water as necessary to keep the other ingredients covered.
- Alternately, bring to a simmer and place, covered, in a
- .TE 225 100
- oven overnight.
- .SK 4
- Strain the stock.
- A layer of fat will form on top of the stock as it cools.
- This is a sufficient seal to keep the stock fresh in the
- refrigerator for a couple of weeks.
- It freezes well, too.
- .SH RATING
- .I Difficulty:
- easy.
- .I Time:
- 10 minutes preparation, 12\-14 hours cooking.
