Potato Peel Stock / Potassium Broth

Potassium broth is healthy & healing.  It is simple and affordable to make.

The following are the basic broth ingredients – ideally organic

What you’ll need:

  • Potato peels from about 6 scrubbed potatoes
  • 1 sliced onion
  • 2 to 3 sliced carrots (not peeled)
  • 1 to 2 sliced celery ribs
  • Fresh or dried parsley
  • 2 to 4 quarts filtered water

With the basic ingredients listed, you can actually use whatever is in your kitchen. The above list is a guideline to start with, be creative. I save my organic trimming including onions ends & skins, carrots, garlic – okay basically my veggies scraps.  They are kept in a gallon freezer bag for making broth.

Directions:

  1. Add all your ingredients to a pot
  2. Bring to a boil then simmer for 45 minutes to an hour
  3. Add Celtic sea salt, freshly ground pepper and other herbs/spices the last 10 minutes.
  4. Cool broth and strain

The spices, Celtic sea salt, and pepper really make an important flavor difference. I actually like to add salt, pepper, and seasoning after I have strained the peels and veggies.

You can enhance your health and broth by adding seasoning.  If you are dealing with a health concern look up what herbs will help support that and add it to your broth.

For example colds or flu add garlic

Sinus clearing – chili pepper

Detox – cilantro

Herbs have healing properties, just look them up.

Why consume this broth?

  2. It’s alkalizing
  3. Mineralizing
  4. Flushes toxins
  5. Supports & nourishes the kidneys & adrenal glands
  6. Great source of hydration
