One and a half carrots and one onion together with 150 g of celery should be coarsely chopped. Do the same, only smaller, with 6 cloves of garlic.

Place all ingredients in a heavy-bottomed saucepan, add 25 black peppercorns and 2 bay leaves and pour in enough water to cover all ingredients.

After boiling, cook the broth for another 1.5 hours, then strain it through a sieve and continue to evaporate until it reduces in volume by about 3 times.

Add 0.5 teaspoon of dried parsley and dill to the concentrate and pour it into ice cube trays. Homemade bouillon cubes are ready.
