- Roast the vegetables before simmering them in water. This will help to concentrate their flavor.
- Use a large pot or stockpot to make the stock. This will give the vegetables plenty of room to simmer and release their flavor.
- Simmer the stock for at least 30 minutes, or up to several hours. The longer you simmer it, the more flavorful it will be.
- Strain the stock through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any solids.
- Store the stock in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze it for up to 6 months.
