Add to an 8 Qt. Enameled Stockpot:
6 Quarts Water
3 medium yellow onions, halved
1 head celery, well washed, stalks cut in chunks, leaves included
4 large unpeeled carrots scrubbed, cut in half, then in chunks
3 large leeks (use all but 3\'d3 of the green top) split, well rinsed
*Make sure the water you use doesn't taste of chemicals. If necessary, use bottled spring water.
Bring the contents of the 8 Qt. Stockpot to a boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer for 2 to 3 hours.
Uncover the stockpot and bring back to the boil and cook until the liquid is reduced by about 1/4 to 1/3 to concentrate the flavor.
Let the mixture cool in the pot and then strain. Freeze if not using within two days. It will keep for several weeks in the freezer.
