We’ve got out of the habit of making stock but at one time they were an indispensable part of cooking. Nowadays there are stock cubes and gravy powders, cup-a-soups and instant miso but still nothing beats the deep, rich flavour of a good, slow simmered stock. It’s not difficult. It just takes a little time. You can make stock with fresh bones, roast bones or just vegetables.
Here’s a roast lamb bone stock with vegetables and seaweed.
