Roasted Veggie Stock
If you are looking for a lighter veggie stock - Click here
What you need
Leek
Anise (Fennel bulb)
Onion
Carrot
Garlic
Mushroom
Zucchini
Red Bell Pepper
Parsley
Herbs and Spices
Sherry or other alcohol
Wee bit of olive oil
Chop all the veggies up, lightly coat with olive oil and roast at 450 degrees for 45-50 min. I roasted mine with fresh thyme tossed in as my herb, you can use anything you have in the fridge.
The hardest part of making this stock is not eating up all the veggies before you finish. Toss all of the veggies into your stock pot and with your sherry, de-glaze the bottom of the roasting dish - this is essential, you want all that good stuff stuck to the bottom of the pan.
Add 16 cups of water, your parsley and any other spices. At this point you could also add fresh or roasted tomatoes. I roast my tomatoes separate from my other veggie because they only take 15-20 minutes to roast. This go-round I had in the pot: bay leaf, crushed coriander seed, cumin seed, pink peppercorns and a few juniper berries. Again, use what ever you have in the kitchen that compliments the roasted veggies. I like coriander and cumin together as I like the citrus note with the anise flavor. Bring everything to a boil and then let simmer for 1-2 hours.
Note to Millie’s mum - here’s how big my stock pot is! Right now it has all the veggies, all the water and there is room for at least 20 more cups of water.
Once done, you want to strain over a cheese cloth into a new pot - I like to mush down the veggie with my ladle so I get out all the flavor! If you want to be sure your stock is crystal clear, you can use a chinois, I don’t bother - I’m not that picky.
The salting question - I do not salt my stock - I may add a pinch of salt and sugar if I’m sweating onions, but when cooking and reducing, I do not salt. My reason: I like to salt my soup, risotto or whatever as I’m cooking it. If cooking stock salted to taste, the salt can concentrate and make the stock too salty - that’s my two cents anyway.
When done, you will have 8-10 cups of liquid amber gold. Oh, homemade stock is soooooo much better than the store canned stuff.
I’m working on something…
…Is it Friday yet? I want to be sure to be awake to pester DKM all day Saturday when she wants to rest.
Last weeks unsolved with some more clues
4. “You’re born, you take shit. You get out in the world, you take more shit. You climb a little higher, you take less shit. Till one day you’re up in the rarefied atmosphere and you’ve forgotten what shit even looks like.” Layer Cake ~Auntie Kate!
13. “I’d commit any sin, mortal or otherwise, to get the hell out of here.” I don’t think any one will get this one… it’s a movie called The Magdalene Sisters. The Magdalene Sisters is a 2002 film written and directed by Peter Mullan about teenage girls who were sent to Magdalene Asylums, otherwise known as the ‘Magdalen Laundries’: homes for women who were labeled as “fallen” by their families or society (though the film itself questions this). The homes were maintained by individual religious orders in the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland. The film is a fictionalized account loosely based on true stories of the girls sent to the asylums. Peter Mullan has remarked that the film was initially made because victims of Magdalene Asylums had received no closure in the form of recognition, compensation, or apology, and many remained lifelong devout Catholics.[1] Former Magdalen inmate Mary-Jo McDonagh told Mullan that the reality of the Magdalene Asylums was much worse than depicted in the film.

Poetry Month Quiz
No one guested last week’s poem - so here’s your chance with a clue. It won 4 oscars.
The Lake Isle of Innisfree by Yeats from Million Dollar Baby ~Latte
I WILL arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet’s wings.
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
Fiona Bun: Knock, Knock
Sophia: Who’s there?
Fiona Bun: Lettuce…
Sophia: Lettuce who?
Fiona Bun: Lettuce in and you’ll find out!
Sophia: I woke up for that??
Fiona, Meezer Bun
