Beef Broth
- 6 pounds beef bones or 2-3 lb. beef shank or 9 cups water
- 3 stalks celery with leaves, diced
- 2 carrots diced
- 1 onion diced
- 1 tomato quartered
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon marjoram
- 8 peppercorns
- 2 teaspoons salt
- Put meat, bones and water in stock pot. Simmer uncovered for 3 hours (do not boil). Strain. Remove any meat or marrow from bones. Add marrow to stock; reserve meat for soup. Chill stock overnight; skim and discard fat which floats to the top. Bring stock to boiling; add remaining ingredients and simmer uncovered for 2 hours. Strain.
- Reserve vegetables for soup or later use. Use broth within 2 weeks or freeze for later use. Note: For hearty soup, do not strain broth. Add 2-3 cups cooked pasta.
