Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Vegan Beef Broth Alternative.
Step 1
To start your delicious soup, grab a large nonstick soup pot and heat it over medium heat.
Step 2
Toss in the chopped onion and sauté it for about five minutes, or until it turns a lovely translucent color.
Step 3
Next, add in the chopped celery, carrots, leeks, and diced garlic.
Step 4
Stir everything together and let it sauté for another ten minutes, giving it a gentle stir now and then to keep things from sticking.
Step 5
Now it’s time to bring in the magic! Pour in 12 cups of water, and then sprinkle in the chopped parsley, dried thyme, dried oregano, bay leaves, salt, and pepper.
Step 6
Give it a good stir and bring the mixture to a boil.
Step 7
Once it’s bubbling away, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 30 minutes.
Step 8
This is when all those wonderful flavors start to meld together, filling your kitchen with an inviting aroma.
Step 9
After the first simmer, stir in the soy sauce, liquid smoke, and vegan Worcestershire sauce.
Step 10
Let it continue to simmer for another hour, allowing those rich flavors to deepen even more.
Step 11
When the time is up, take a slotted spoon and carefully remove the vegetables and bay leaves from the broth, discarding them.
Step 12
And there you have it—a hearty, flavorful soup that’s perfect for any occasion! Enjoy every warm, comforting spoonful.
