Ingredients

2 cups large dice yellow onions
2 cups large dice leeks, green and white parts, well rinsed
2 cups mushroom trimmings, wiped clean
1 cup large dice carrots
1 cup large dice celery
1 cup large dice turnips
1 cup large dice parsnips
1 cup large dice yellow squash
1 cup large dice zucchini
8 Roma tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup garlic cloves, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper

1 gallon water
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, or 2 teaspoons dried
8 parsley stems
4 basil stems
2 bay leaves
2 cups white wine

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a large roasting pan, spread the onions, leeks, mushrooms, carrots, celery, turnips, parsnips, squash,
zucchini, tomatoes and garlic cloves. Drizzle with the olive oil, and season with the salt and pepper,
stirring to coat. Roast for 45 minutes, stirring, every 15 minutes to brown evenly.

Remove from the oven and transfer to a large pot. Add the water and herbs, and bring to a boil. Reduce the
heat and simmer for 20 minutes, skimming to remove any foam that rises to the surface. Add the wine and cook
for 30 minutes.

Remove from the heat and strain through a fine mesh strainer into a clean container. Use immediately, cool in
an ice bath, then refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days. (The stock can be frozen for up to 3
months.)
