White stock is generally used as a base for delicately flavored
sauces.
This stock adds little or no color to the final sauce.
Place the bones and water in a large stock kettle.
Bring to a boil
and skim well.
Add the remaining ingredients, turn the heat down to
low, and simmer for 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
Strain through a cheesecloth
lined strainer and allow to cool; then skim off the fat, and chill.
The cold stock will be quite gelatinous.
Yield: About 6 cups.
