The vegetable stock is used alongside the meat stock in soups, sauces, risottos and various stews. The perfectly cooked vegetable stock is flavorsome and rich as is as good as the meat one.

The vegetable stock can be made from different kinds of vegetables and roots in any combination. Vegetables and roots can be added either raw or cooked in oil. For the most flavorsome broth you may also bake vegetables in an oven and then use them for stock. Try different variations and choose your favorite! All the secrets of cooking the vegetable stock see here.

 

I’d love to share with you the recipe for my favorite variation of the vegetable stock. I came across this recipe in a book on risotto by an Austrian restaurateur who is famous for his original, modern and healthy foods. The key of a delicious risotto is the vegetable stock, so the book starts with a recipe for one. I keep to his technique, but vary the set of vegetable according to a season and availability.

I highly recommend this stock, it’s wonderful, flavorsome and delicious! Honestly speaking, if all the vegetables are added, then you can drink it right from a mug without adding to a soup 🙂
