In a large stockpot add all ingredients and barely cover vegetables with water, leaving the cabbage halves sticking slightly above the water. Bring mixture to a boil over high heat, reduce heat to medium-high and cook until stock is reduced by half, about 30 to 45 minutes.

Strain the stock through a sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on the vegetables. Discard vegetables. House Beautiful/September/93 Scanned & fixed by DP & GG
