Your first batch might not be perfect. It’s okay. Maybe it’s a little thin or not as dark as you hoped. That’s just an excuse to tweak the bones or roast them longer next time. Broth is forgiving. Unlike your sourdough starter, it doesn’t judge you for forgetting it in the fridge for two days.
So grab that sad bag of veggies, raid your freezer for bones, and let your Crock Pot do the work. You’ll have a stash of liquid reassurance ready for the next rainy Tuesday. And you’ll feel like the smartest, most resourceful cook on your block. Go ahead—make some broth. Your future self, huddled under a blanket with a steaming mug, will thank you.
