  1. Heat a large soup pot, Add the olive oil and let it heat a bit. Add the onion and garlic and cook over medium heat until the onion softens slightly and the garlic becomes fragrant, 8 minutes or so.

  3. Add the water to the vegetables in the pot. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and continue to cook covered stirring occasionally 2 hours or so.
  4. Strain the soup through a fine mesh strainer,then strain again, this time through a cheesecloth lined mesh strainer.
  5. Fill recipe sized containers with the stock. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months or so. The stock can be kept in the refrigerator for 4 days
