So, Stocks...

Not the most exciting day, but we did have one of my favorite chefs, Chef Alex:


We made a few different stocks:

Carrot Onion


 Brown Stock
I was told this imitates brown veal/beef stock, but is vegetarian.
False. 
What I should have been told is, "This is similar to a brown veal/beef stock in that it is brown. It is different from a brown veal/beef stock in that it tastes like vegetables."


 Porchini Mushroom

Sarah has two adorable nephews. 
That has nothing to do with cooking, but is necessary to mention.

We also made a quick mushroom stock which I apparently did not want to take a picture of. It was just dried shiitake mushrooms, kombu and water.
