Just discovered how carrot tops can boost flavor in stocks
I was cleaning up after prep and almost tossed out a bunch of carrot tops. Then I read about using them in vegetable stock. I tried simmering them with onion skins and celery ends. The stock came out with a really nice, earthy taste. It cuts down on food waste big time. Now I save all my root veg trimmings in a freezer bag. Give it a shot if you haven't already.
