Ingredients

Pretty much any vegetables work here. This is a good starting point.

2 onions, quartered
3 carrots, roughly chopped
3 stalks celery, roughly chopped
5 cloves garlic, smashed
1 bunch parsley stems
2 bay leaves
1 tsp whole peppercorns
8 cups water
Salt

Instructions

Add all ingredients to the pot.
Pressure cook on high for 15 minutes, then natural release.
Strain through a fine mesh strainer, pressing on the solids to extract flavor. Discard solids.
Season with salt. Use immediately or store.

Notes

Freeze in 2-cup portions for easy use. Mushroom stems, leek tops, and fennel fronds all work well here. Avoid brassicas (broccoli, cabbage) as they turn bitter.
