Be careful not to overcook the rice, as it can become mushy. And remember, homemade vegetable broth is so tasty that you might be tempted to drink it straight from the pot!

1

Prepare the vegetables

Gather an onion, a carrot, a celery stalk, and a garlic clove. Chop the onion, carrot, and celery into small pieces. Mince the garlic clove.

2

Sauté the vegetables

Heat a splash of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, celery, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables soften and become fragrant.

3

Add the herbs and spices

Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of dried rosemary, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well to coat the vegetables and release the aromatic flavors.

4

Simmer the vegetable broth

Pour in 6 cups of water and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 30 minutes. This will allow all the flavors to infuse into the broth.

5

Strain the broth

Using a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth, strain the vegetable broth into another pot or large bowl. Discard the leftover vegetables, as they have done their flavor-booster duty.
