Kasvispihvi

Kasvispihvi, also known as vegetable stock or vegetable broth, is a liquid prepared by simmering vegetables in water. It serves as a base for soups, stews, and sauces, providing depth of flavor and nutritional value. The primary ingredients typically include vegetables such as carrots, celery, onions, and garlic, which are simmered until they break down and release their flavors into the liquid. The resulting stock is often seasoned with herbs and spices, and may be further enhanced with aromatics like bay leaves or thyme. Kasvispihvi can be made from a variety of vegetables, and the specific combination can vary based on regional preferences and available ingredients. It is a versatile ingredient in cooking, valued for its ability to add richness and complexity to dishes without the need for animal products. Kasvispihvi can be stored in the refrigerator for several days or frozen for longer-term use, making it a convenient and economical option for home cooks.
