I am working on a project for the 2017
growing season to work my way through
100 garden hacks*.
Food waste reduction when composting is not possible,growing season to work my way through
100 garden hacks*.
also a frugal way to get more out of your produce, and all those herbs that be touch to keep up with. This is a particularly good use for herb flowers and seeds!
Just save those scraps in the freezer until it's stock time. Then throw it all in a stock pot (or a really big pot) |
Add water to cover, bring to a boil and simmer for several hours. I also add some whole peppercorns, any old spices you might want to use up e.g. herbs, seeds, sauces, that have been on the shelf for over a year, etc. |
after simmering for several hours, strain... |
I also use a masher to squeeze out every last bit of goodness |
Store some in the fridge for immediate use or store in freezer to last all season
|
For easy storage & use, you can put the stock into ice cube trays to freeze |
I take the leftover mash to the compost for some great decomposer food! |
