Discard the former and reserve the latter for stuffings. For a clear stock, strain the liquid into another container, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract the juices, then refrigerate of freeze. Refrigerated stock will keep for 3-4 days; frozen it will keep for 6 months. For a thicker, richer stock, pur=82e the liquid and vegetables, then strain. Note: Use for Asian-style soups and stir-fries. To make a wonderful Asian vegetable soup, discard the bouquet garni and pur=82e the broth and vegetables in a blender. Season with soy sauce and pepper and serve. Makes 8 cups soup. High-Flavor, Low-Fat Vegetarian Cooking by Steven Raichlen pg 250 Posted to MM-Recipes Digest by q591b4@ilos.net on Nov 12, 1998
