- 2 medium onions
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/2 tsp dried rosemary

- 10 whole peppercorns
- 8 cups cold water

Instructions

- Reduce heat, cover and simmer on low heat for at least 2 hours or longer.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Strain stock through a fine sieve strainer, discarding all vegetables and seasonings so you are only left with the stock. Season with chicken boullion paste, to taste.
