Stock - Wednesday 1st July 2015

Approximate $ Savings: $2.09 per 500mls (Campbells) or $2.00 per Litre (No name)

Every time you cook your vegetables - no matter which vegetable or the amount of water that they are cooked in, save the water and freeze. This is your vegetable stock that can be used anywhere that you need stock. Sieve it so you have no additional bits in it or have as is for gravy. You have total control over the amount of salt that is added. This is better than any stock that you will buy.

Editor's note: I save the water from steamed or boiled vegetables in a tall Tupperware Square Round container in the freezer. I just top the container up with the water until it is full. Once the last top-up is frozen the contents are put into a freezer bag. I use this as the "water" part of the soups I make. No waste of water or nutrition and the soups have a great flavour. Cath.
