GARBAGE SOUP

Garbage Soup image

This is a budget stretcher recipe where you use your potato peels. It can be the start of any type of soup you want to make, especially if you use method A. where you save it as a clear broth. Use in any recipe that calls for broth or consomme. If it cooks down add some more water (not too much) simmer on low heat covered
