 Ingredients List

  • 5 lb Bare rendering bones; sawed
  • -into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 bn Carrots
  • 1 Head celery
  • 3 Yellow onions

 Directions

This is one of those things that you prepare on your one major cooking day
each week. It takes some time to concoct, but this soup stock is just basic
to a properly and frugally run kitchen. It is used for soups, sauces and
gravies. Tell your butcher that you need bare rendering bones. Then should
not have any meat on them at all, so they should be cheap. Have him saw
them up into 2-inch pieces. Roast the bones in an uncovered pan at 400ø for
2 hours. Be careful with this, because your oven may be a bit too hot.
Watch the bones, which you want to be toasty brown, not black. Place
roasted bones in soup pot and add 5 quarts water. Add vegetables, chopped
with peel and all. Bring to a simmer, uncovered, and cook 12 hours. You may
need to add water to keep soup up to the same level. Do not salt the stock.
Strain the stock, and store in refrigerator. Allow the fat to stay on the
top of the stock when you refrigerate it; the fat will seal the stock and
allow you to keep it for several days.
