"The ordinary acts we practice every day at home are of more importance to the soul
than their simplicity might suggest." ~ Thomas Moore
.: a day for making stock :.
I like to start the week with a pot of stock.
First we chop. Into the pot goes chopped carrots, celery, onions and garlic, a bit of meat bone, some peppercorns and bay leaves, then cover with water and wait.
Little by little good smells slowly emerge and begin fill the kitchen. The good smells fill the house.
I love to start the week by making a pot of stock, so that I have broth ready for Soup Day and broth to use for a quick bowl of noodles and vegetables, as well as broth to slip into a curry or whatever else might benefit from a bit of broth during the week.
During the days of deep cold weather, an extra bonus from the stock pot, a cup of warm broth with carrots and ribbon egg noodles is divinely comforting and warming in so many ways.
