 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    5      Gallons       Water
   20      Lb            Veal Bones -- sawn
    5      Lb            Chicken Backs -- or feet
      1/2                Celery -- chopped
    1                    Leek -- chopped
    2                    Onions -- chopped
      1/2  Bunch         Parsley Stems
    5                    Bay Leaves
    1      Tbl           Peppercorns -- crushed
      1/2  Tbl           Thyme Leaf
 
  1. Blanch the bones by covering with cold water and bringing to the
  boil. Discard water and rinse bones.
 
  2. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to the boil, then simmer for up
  to 18 hours, with skimming to remove any scum that rises.
 
  3. Scald clean containers,and strain stock into each, seeing some fat
  into each to act as a protective cap. Cover with saran and cool.
 
  4. This will keep at least a week, but should be part of the regular
  weekly Mise en place. Excess should be frozen or reduced for glac
  d'viand, a 10-1 reduction.
 
 NOTES:
 
 These recipes are for 5 gallons, but you can cut them in half. It
 hardly pays to make less than 10 quarts, but if space is a factor,
 reduce the stock by boiling to half its original volume. The flavors
 will be more pronounced, as will any errors introduced.
