Stocks are formed from the cooking of animal bones or vegetable parts in seasoned water often for a couple of hours. The bones are then disposed of but you end up with a delicious stock to help flavour other dishes. They be soup, gravy and risotto to name a few.
We have an expanding list of recipes for you to try. If you have one then please post it onto our site and we will share it with the world.
Tip:
I make stock in advance and freeze it. When its time to make a soup, risotto, curries and so much more.
