Onion: Cut 2 medium onions in half to add some more depth to your broth Celery stalks: Roughly chop 2 stalks to give a little bitterness to the stock. The celery will complement the carrot and onion, if adding. Carrots: Roughly chop 2 medium carrots for a little sweetness. Garlic: Cut a whole head of garlic in half and toss it in. You don’t even need to peel it! This will give a nice zest to the broth. Herbs and spices: Salt and peppercorns, rosemary, sage leaves, thyme, and bay leaves all play nicely in the turkey stock.
