⏰ Service 7 — A Whole Soup Kitchen Day
← Block 7–8: Stocks & Eggs Overview
The project session you make three things — stock, soup, and a complete dinner — that set you up with leftovers and frozen stock for weeks.
| Time | Task | Recipe |
|---|---|---|
| Morning | Big batch beef/veal stock (6–8 hrs, mostly passive) | Homemade Beef Stock |
| Dinner | French Onion Soup using your fresh beef stock | French Onion Soup |
| Sides | Watercress Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette + Garlic-Rubbed Grilled Bread | Salad |
Freeze the remaining stock in 1-cup portions. You now have stock in your freezer at all times. This changes your cooking permanently.
