How To Make Stock From Bones

Beef bones are the best for this stock; break them up very small with a chopper, put them into a large saucepan and cover well with cold water, add two teaspoonfuls of salt, and when it boils up remove the scum carefully, and put in one onion, one carrot, half a turnip, a little piece of the outside stalk of celery, and one dozen peppercorns.

Boil steadily for six hours, or longer, then strain off through a colander or sieve, and stand in a cool place till the next day.

Carefully remove the fat by directions given elsewhere, and it is ready for use. This stock is a good foundation for all soups, gravies, and sauces.
