1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup white wine
1 lemon, juiced
1 onion, chopped
1/2 celery rib, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped finely
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
4 to 5 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan
and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer
for 8 minutes. Strain or use chunky the first time, then strain
through a fine mesh and either refrigerate for up to 3 days or
freeze for up to 2 months. Either way, be sure to bring to a
boil before reusing.
