Stock

[ailbhe]

I'm drinking either good stock or bland soup, I think. It's what you get when you take all the veg peelings out of the freezer, and put them in a slow cooker for ages with the mutton bone. Most of the result is in jugs, but I have a mugful of it here.

Mmmmmmm.

But tell me, with the veg peelings, are you not also freezing a fair bit of garden dirt? Or do you scrub before peeling? Or wha'?

I rinse before peeling, unless I can *see* dirt. All organic veg means I'm fairly casual about nasties which might be in the soil, so carrots etc are only scrubbed if muddy.

Peapods were left as is, as were broad bean pods.
