Garlic broth (vegetarian feast)

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Heads garlic; separated into
; cloves and peeled
2 quarts Water
1 tablespoon Olive oil
1 Bay leaf
2 Sprigs fresh thyme or \\ teaspoon dried thyme
4 Sprigs fresh parsley
1 Pinches dried leaf sage
2 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Combine all the ingredients in a stockpot. Bring to a gentle boil, then cover and reduce the heat. Simmer for 1 to 2 hours. Strain.

You can invent your own soups based on these, or use them when a recipe calls for stock.

(It's worth saving the water you've used to steam or boil vegetables, by the way. It adds flavor and nutrients to soups and sauces _ or you can use it to water plants.)
