Shortcut Beef Broth

Recipe Ingredients

2 lbs	908g / 32oz	Lean boneless beef - finely chopped or ground
1		Onion - finely chopped (large)
2		Carrots - finely chopped
1		Celery stalk - finely
		Chopped
2		Whole cloves
4		Peppercorns
6		Parsley sprigs
8 cups	1896ml	Water

Recipe Instructions

1. Combine all ingredients in a large pot. Bring to a simmer, stirring once or twice. Do not boil.

2. Partially cover pan and simmer gently for 45 minutes. Do not stir or skim broth while it cooks.

3. Strain broth through a cheesecloth-lined colander or wire-mesh sieve. To use broth immediately, blot up liquid fat from surface by touching the globules lightly with a paper towel. If you're not using it the same day, refrigerate it; spoon off the fat when it solidifies on the surface.

4. Store in refrigerator several days, or freeze up to 8 months.

Makes 8 cups.
