Directions

  1. Cut the large bones into pieces. Place them on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 180 °C for 30 minutes. Alternatively, you can pan-fry them in a frying pan without any oil.
  2. In a large saucepan, brown the bones and large chunks of vegetables in a little sunflower oil. Add the leek later, as it cooks more quickly.
  3. Add the peppercorns and tomato paste, then cook until lightly browned. Deglaze with red wine, add the ice water, and simmer over low heat, frequently skimming off any foam.
  4. Add the herbs to the broth and let it simmer. After 2 to 3 hours, allow it to cool, then strain it through a cloth.
