I substituted parsnips for the artichoke and it turned out great.
I skipped the artichokes because I couldn't find any and time was of the essence. Also, I forgot about the soy sauce. Otherwise, made as directed and used it for matzoh ball soup for two guests who are vegetarian. They both LOVED it. Sent them home with the recipe.
I’ve made this stock several times and it adds so much depth and flavor to my soups. Jerusalem artichokes don’t agree with me so I subbed with a parsnip and it’s delicious!
Recipe says to add soy sauce to the recipe above
The recipe says "Add the soy sauce AND USE in the recipe above." I wonder what recipe is associated with this wonderful stock? NYT Cooking, can you help here?
Jerusalem artichokes don't agree with me so I left them out and increased carrots by one. The flavor was a bit sweet for me. I cooked it down some more and then added lemon juice from a small wedge of lemon and that did the trick for me.
