Roasted Vegetable Scrap Stock Recipes

ROASTED-VEGETABLE STOCK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut the top off the head of garlic. Arrange the garlic, carrots, celery, onion, pepper, and tomato on a large baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables; season with salt and pepper.
• Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven, turning every 20 minutes, until tender and browned, about 1 hour.
• Combine the water, thyme, parsley, and bay leaves in a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Squeeze the head of garlic into the stock pot, and discard the outer husk. Place the carrots, celery, onion, pepper, and tomato in the stock pot. Bring the water to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 1/2 hours; strain and cool.

VEGETABLE SCRAP STOCK

Steps:

• Coarsely chop carrot and onion scraps into 1-inch pieces. Peel garlic cloves and smash lightly with the flat side of a large knife, so the cloves are cracked and somewhat flattened.
• Heat olive oil in a 3-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add vegetable scraps, garlic, thyme, bay leaf, and peppercorns. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes.
• Add water, salt, white wine, and cheese rind. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Uncover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes more.
• Strain stock through a fine-mesh sieve. Use immediately, or store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

HOW TO MAKE VEGGIE STOCK WITH KITCHEN SCRAPS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Remove the tops/bottoms/skins/stems from any vegetables you are preparing (avoid vegetables like Brussels sprouts, broccoli, or cauliflower as they will add a bitter taste to your stock) and place them in a ziplock bag - they can stay frozen up to 6 months.
• Note: You can add many other vegetable scraps (think sweet!) - i.e. corn cobs, winter squash, zucchini, and other squash, beet greens, fennel, chard, lettuce, parsnips, green beans, pea pods, bell peppers, eggplant, mushrooms, asparagus, and herbs like dill, thyme, parsley, cilantro, and basil.
• Continue like this until bag is full.
• Dump bag into pot and fill ¾ of the pot (or until scraps just start to float) with water.
• Bring water to a boil and then let it simmer for at least 30 minutes.
• Strain water out of stock.
• Refrigerate stock up to 4 days, or freeze up to 3 months.
• Enjoy!

ROASTED VEGETABLE SCRAP STOCK

Steps:

• As you cook throughout the week, freeze vegetable, herb and fruit scraps in a large ziplock bag, omitting any bad or mouldy spots. Make sure to include your garlic peels and onion skins. Some example scraps: broccoli and cauliflower stalks, carrot, beet and sweet potato peels, parsley and cilantro stems, apple and pear peel.
• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Toss the frozen vegetable, herb and fruit scraps with the olive oil, until gently coated.
• Place the scraps on a foil-lined baking sheet and roast for about 20 minutes, turning them at least once halfway.
• Place the roasted scraps in a large pot, scraping all the roasted brown pieces into the pot as well.
• Cover with water. A good rule of thumb is 1 cup of water per cup of scraps for a very flavourful stock; you can always dilute it to taste when using in a recipe.
• Bring to a boil.
• Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer. Loosely cover (with the lid cracked).
• Simmer for at least an 1 hour; the flavour will deepen the longer it cooks.
• Using a fine mesh strainer, remove the scraps from the broth, pressing down on solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
• Use immediately to make soup, or freeze in small portions for easy use in day to day cooking.

ROASTED VEGETABLE STOCK

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F.
• Toss the vegetables with the olive oil, until gently coated.
• Place the vegetables in a roasting pan or on a foil-lined baking sheet and roast for about half an hour, turning them occasionally (They should be nicely browned and very aromatic).
• Place all the vegetables in a large pot, scraping all the good brown stuff from the roasting pan into the pot with the herbs and peppercorns.
• Fill with water and place on the stovetop on medium high heat.
• Bring to a boil, lower the temperature, and boil gently for 2-3 hours (watch the water level--if it boils down too much, add more water).
• Strain, pressing down on solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard the solids and place the remaining liquid in a sauce pan.
• Simmer until reduced by three quarters; this could take about an hour.
• You should end up with about one and a half to two quarts of stock.

ROASTED VEGETABLE STOCK

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Toss together mushrooms, shallots, carrots, bell pepper, garlic, parsley and thyme sprigs, and oil in a flameproof roasting pan. Roast, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are golden, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Transfer vegetables with a slotted spoon to a 4-quart saucepan. Straddle roasting pan across 2 burners, then add wine and deglaze pan by boiling over moderate heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to saucepan and add bay leaf, tomatoes, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, 45 minutes. Pour stock through a large fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on and then discarding solids.
