Prosciutto Bone Stock
Making soup? Use a prosciutto bone stock! Just like our Italian forefathers and grandmothers did over a hundred years ago. I’m telling you right now, you’ll never use anything else again.
Prosciutto Stock Ingredients:
- 1 large prosciutto bone with all the meat removed
- 4-5 carrots watched and peeled
- 2-3 celery stalks cleaned
- 4 garlic cloves
- ½ of an onion, peeled
- herb sachet (parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
I had a chunk of pork cheek in the freezer that I plopped into my stock recipe as well and it was great but not totally necessary.
Put all the ingredients into a large pot of water and simmer for about 3 hours or more.
When I drained off the ingredients from the broth I knew I had something really special on my hands. I used this particular stock recipe for my Italian wedding soup and it was amazing. The perfect meal for a cold winters night.
