5 gallons water
10 pounds beef soup bones sawn
10 pounds veal bones sawn
5 pounds chicken backs or feet
1/2 each celery stalks chopped
1 each leeks chopped
2 each onions chopped
1/2 bunch parsley leaves stems
5 each bay leaves
1 tablespoon peppercorns crushed
1/2 tablespoon thyme

1
Blanch the bones by covering with cold water and bringing to the boil.
2
Discard water and rinse bones.
3
Add remaining ingredients.
4
Bring to the boil, then simmer for up to 18 hours, with skimming to remove any scum that rises.
5
Scald clean containers, and strain stock into each, seeing some fat into each to act as a protective cap.
6
Cover with saran and cool.
7
This will keep at least a week, but should be part of the regular weekly Mise en place.
8
Excess should be frozen or reduced for glace d'viand, a 10 to 1 reduction.
9
NOTES: These recipes are for 5 gallons, but you can cut them in half.
10
It hardly pays to make less than 10 quarts, but if space is a factor, reduce the stock by boiling to half its original volume.
11
The flavors will be more pronounced, as will any errors introduced.
