Ain't? *giggles* you put an apostrophe in aint? Of what two words is it a
contraction?

*tease*

I stopped using the ( ' ) mark in aint when I couldn't answer that question
myself. *laughs*

And omg, Sheldon, lighten up *giggles some more*

I don't think she was giving a specific recipe, just some general guidelines
for a decent veggie broth and subsequent soup.

I do have to agree with him on the cruciferous veggies in stock, though. I
personally avoid broc, cabbage, cauliflower in basic stocks (unless they are
going to play a star role in the final dish). or else they tend to overpower
all the other veggie flavors-- Like that star anise that I thought one little
tiny piece wouldn't overpower my brine but I was wrong *laughs*.

*cheers*
