  • 1 pound Parmigiano-Reggiano rinds and ends
  • 1 onion, peeled and halved
  • 1 head garlic, halved crosswise
  • A few sprigs fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Combine all the ingredients in a large stockpot over high heat and bring to a boil.
  2. Decrease the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, until the broth is richly flavored and aromatic.
  3. Strain through a sieve lined with cheesecloth.
  4. Use immediately, or freeze in ice-cube trays, and then transfer to a large resealable bag.
  5. The broth will keep in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  6. Use the same quantity (1 pound) prosciutto rinds, end, and bits.
  7. If you dont use as much prosciutto as I do and want to make the broth, ask your butcher for some scraps you can buy for cheap.
  8. Chill the broth and skim the fat before using or freezing.
