Free food & cooking tip: Collect and simmer (step 3 of 12 from "Complete Weeknight Kitchen Masterclass").
Save onion skins, carrot ends, celery tops, mushroom stems in a freezer bag. When you have 500 g scraps: cover with 2 L water, simmer 20 min, strain.
Salt lightly at the end — not at start (concentrates as it reduces). Freeze in 500 ml portions. Instant upgrade to rice, soup, and pan sauces.
