Vegetable Broth for Soups

Whenever I cook, I’ve noticed loads of trimmings and peelings discarded from the fruits or vegetables. There are still excellent nutrients, you can extract like minerals by slow cooking in as low heat as 40-degree centigrade, 120 Fahrenheit. Throwing them out seems like a bit of a waste. But there’s one way to save these by turning them into a beautiful vegetable broth for soups.

Broths are excellent as a soup base or a component for a rich, beautiful sauce. It’s also one excellent way to achieve zero waste. The fiber from fruits and vegetables is called cellulose which contains minerals that most of us discard. When cooking on low heat, the mineral oozes out into the water and allows for quick absorption during consumption.

Next time you have accumulated fruits and vegetables cut off, follow the recipe below to make this great zero-waste vegetable broth flavorful and nutritious.
