Beef Stock - what to do with it?

[Anonymous]

I made an awesome brisket this past weekend in the crock pot and now I have leftover stock. What should I do with it? Anyone have any risotto receipes or something tasty like that?

Use it to make French onion soup.

French onion soup was my first though.

Honestly, you can just make risotto with the broth. (I would probably add sauteed mushrooms and add some grated gruyere.) I bet it would be yummy.

Freeze it right away if you aren't going to use it right away. There are a million things you can do with homemade stock. Stock is gold, baby, GOLD!

Yep. Next time you want to make sauce or gravy or stew or risotto or whatever, you'll be glad you have it on hand.

Freeze it in small portions--pints or cups, certainly nothing bigger than a quart. That way you can thaw and freeze on an as-needed basis.
