47 Kitchen Medicine Broth Series: Garlic Stock

An Herbal Diary

Join me in my kitchen apothecary as I make the easiest stock ever. Just garlic and water simmered together results in a versatile, flavorful and densely nourishing stock. It’s perfect for making vegetable soup, rice, marinara sauce or beans.

Garlic Stock

makes 2 quarts

2 whole heads garlic

1 Tablespoon olive oil

2 quarts water

Gently wash garlic head under running water, pat dry with a paper towel.

Slice garlic head in half horizontally.

In a large stockpot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add halved garlic cut side down, cooked stirring occasionally about 3 minutes until garlic begins to smell aromatic. Take care not to burn garlic.

Add water, bring to boil, then lower heat to just maintain a simmer. Continue to simmer for 1 hour. Strain, discard garlic and peels. May season to taste.
