Sunflower oil – as needed
Instructions:
- Peel and roughly chop the onion, carrot, and celery.
- Heat a little sunflower oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables and sauté for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Stir in the tomato purée and half a cup of water. Mix well and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft. Stir occasionally and add a splash of water if needed to prevent sticking.
- Once the vegetables are cooked, add finely chopped parsley, salt, ground black pepper, and a pinch of turmeric for a golden color. Mix well and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Let the vegetable mixture cool, then blend it into a smooth purée using a blender or food processor. Weigh the purée (this will be your stock concentrate) to calculate the portion size. For example, if the ingredients for 6 L of broth yield 600 g of concentrate, use 600÷6=100 g of concentrate per liter of water to prepare the broth.
- Spoon the concentrate into ice cube trays and freeze until solid. Once frozen, you can transfer the cubes to a freezer-safe bag or container for storage.
- To prepare broth, add the frozen cubes to a pot of water, bring to a boil, and stir until dissolved. Adjust salt to taste.
Enjoy your meal!
