4. To onions, add celery, carrots, leeks, seasoning, and cook 5 minutes.

5. Add remaining water, mushrooms and liquid, bring to boil and simmer one hour.

6. Strain stock and reduce as needed.


NOTES
For sweeter tasting "meats" like lamb, veal or pork.

From "The Meat Lover's Vegetarian Cookbook" by Steven Ferry & Tanya Petrovna.

Used for flavorings in mock-meat recipes (vegetarian or otherwise) that call for certain types of vegetarian stocks, aside from plain ole vegetable.
