Stocks

•Many recipes use stock as part of the ingredients. A good stock is also the base of a great soup. Stocks can be bought at supermarkets; however, nothing beats the flavour of a homemade stock.

•Making your own stock is a great way to use up bones or carcasses that would normally be thrown away.

•There is no need to peel your vegetables when making a stock. Just ensure you wash them well before use.

•Fresh made stock will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, but can be frozen for up to 3 months.

•Always label and date your stock before storing. It’s a good idea to freeze stock in portioned sizes. So for example if you generally use stocks in stews, casseroles, curries etc, then freeze your stock in 1 cup portions. If you tend to use your stock more for gravies and sauces, then freezer it in smaller ¼ cup portions or even in ice cube trays, so that you don’t need to defrost large quantities at a time.

•To remove the excess fat, cool the stock in the fridge overnight, then skim the solidified fat from the surface.
