This homemade vegetable stock is a versatile staple that provides a deep, savoury foundation for your favourite soups, stews and risottos. By browning the root vegetables first, you create a rich colour and a complex sweetness that shop-bought cubes simply cannot match. It is a fantastic way to use up seasonal produce and garden harvests, ensuring nothing goes to waste in your kitchen.
As a nutritious vegan recipe, this stock is packed with vitamins from fresh carrots, leeks and brassica stems. Using onion and turnip skins adds an extra layer of golden hue and earthy flavour to the broth. Prepare a large batch to keep in the fridge or freeze in portions, providing a healthy, salt-controlled base for quick midweek meals and comforting home cooking.
