Soup stock, also known as broth, is a flavorful liquid base made by simmering ingredients like vegetables, herbs, and either meat, poultry, or bones. Often used in a variety of cuisines worldwide, stock serves as the foundation for soups, stews, sauces, and rice dishes. Commonly found in Western, Asian, and Mediterranean cooking, its components vary depending on the recipe, but typical ingredients include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and spices, alongside protein-rich bones or scraps. Nutritionally, homemade stock is rich in collagen and minerals like calcium and magnesium, especially if simmered with bones for a long time. It can be low in calories and fat, making it a versatile option for lighter meals. However, store-bought versions may contain high levels of sodium or preservatives, so it’s important to check labels or make your own for a healthier choice.
