Scott's Vegetable Broth With Very Low Sodium

"This vegan broth by trained chef Scott Domery is the tasty base for many no-salt, or lowest-sodium recipes in Don Gazzaniga's "The No-Salt, Lowest-Sodium Cookbook". It can be used in place of water in many recipes to add more flavor while holding the line on calories and salt."

directions

  • Place all the ingredients into a stockpot and simmer, partially covered, for 8 hours or overnight. Stir occasionally.
  • Skim off any scum that appears. Cook it this way for 45 minutes. (If using a crockpot, cook on LOW for 8-12 hours and skim scum when done.).
  • Remove the ingredients from the pot and strain the stock through cheesecloth or a cheesecloth-lined vegetable strainer or sieve. Throw out the solids.
  • Simmer the strained stock until it reduces to about 8 cups.
  • If making ahead, let cool and store in 2-cup freezer containers to approximate the volume of one can of soup.

    I just picked up the same cookbook, which has a lot of great ideas for those who need a very low sodium diet. I don't know how it happened, but ended up with just 3 cups of broth at the end of the day (used crockpot and perhaps I did not put in enough water or just reduced too much??) I would reduce the celery next time, a bit too strong for my taste. But generally this is good and I know it will work well in soups in particular.
