TIPS

• Use Organic Ingredients: This enhances flavour and avoids pesticide residues, especially important for parsley.

• Chop Finely: Smaller pieces extract flavour and nutrients more efficiently into the broth.

• Do Not Over-Zest: Too much lemon zest may overpower the broth; half a teaspoon adds the perfect lift.

• Pepper Boost: Freshly ground black pepper supports the absorption of nutrients and adds gentle warmth.

• Double The Batch: This broth stores well, which makes it extra to enjoy throughout the day.

VARIATIONS

• Add Garlic: A slice of raw or lightly simmered garlic enhances immune-supportive properties.

• Include Fennel: Thinly sliced fennel bulb provides extra digestive support and a hint of sweetness.

• Boost Protein: Add 1 tsp nutritional yeast for savoury flavour and a slight protein bump.

• Herb Swap: Use fresh dill or basil in place of parsley for a different herbal profile.

• Include Carrot Tops: Finely chopped carrot greens blend beautifully with parsley and are highly nutritious.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

• Refrigeration: Store cooled broth in a glass jar with a lid for up to 3 days in the fridge.

• Freezing: Pour cooled broth into silicone ice cube trays or small freezer-safe containers and freeze for up to 1 month.

• Reheat Gently: Warm on low heat to preserve fresh herbal notes, and do not boil when reheating.

• Batch preparation: Chop a large amount of parsley and celery ahead of time and freeze in portioned packs to streamline future prep.

• Use Leftovers Creatively: The strained solids can be blended into dips or stirred into grain salads.
