- Preheat oven to 400°F and roast bones for 30 minutes.
- Place roasted bones in a large stockpot or slow cooker.
- Cover with cold water to submerge the bones completely.

- Add chopped carrots, celery, onions, garlic, bay leaves, parsley, thyme, and peppercorns to the pot.
- If using, add a Parmesan rind for extra flavor.
- Simmer on the stovetop for 10-12 hours or set the slow cooker on low overnight.
- Skim off any foam or impurities during the first hour of cooking to keep the broth clear.

Notes
Roast the bones for added flavor before simmering. Use left-over vegetables or add new ones like kale or mushrooms towards the end for variety. Store the broth in the fridge for up to a week or freeze portions for convenient future use. Try using the broth as a base for risottos or cooking grains for enhanced flavor. Enjoy sipping it on its own, too!
