INSTRUCTIONS
Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and
carrot and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to brown,
8 to 10 minutes.
Place in a slow cooker with water, leek tops, celery, turnip, mushroom and
seasonings. Simmer on high 6 to 8 hours, or overnight, until vegetables are
very soft. Strain off stock and discard vegetables.
Variation: Instead of using leeks, you can use a combination of 2 or more
of the following: loosely packed spinach leaves and stems, lettuce leaves,
tomato skins, fresh mushroom stems, or diced parsnips along with some
additional chopped celery and carrot to equal 3 cups vegetables.
Makes about 8 cups.
Slow cookers and long, slow simmering makes a good broth. A quick browning
of onions and carrots intensifies this stock's hearty flavor.
