    I just made this. WOW!! Thank you for this idea. Jars on the counter now. BUT, I processed them for 30 minutes, not 15. Both the Bernardin website and the Ball Canning Book say 30 minutes for pint of vegetable stock and 35 minutes for quarts. AND, I did taste an onion after it was done. No taste. They are going into compost.

    I bought a case of BALL jars with lids. There were 4 jars that had manufacturer defect cracks / chips.
    3 jars had bad (chipped) lids. So out of twelve jar I had 5 jars that were usable.
    Maybe BALL should just go out of business and leave it up to the new professionals.
    I hope she fixed that lid, I hope she fixed that lid. OH good she fixed the lid.

    I have a batch on now, and plan on getting some more onions tomorrow. (Giant Tiger has them on sale 2 lbs for 97cents). The next batch I think I want to try with some thyme and bay leaf. I have a gas stove, and because of timing and my available space I do simmer broths and stock overnight, but I will either use the Instantpot and use the keep warm setting or put the stuff in the oven. I can get several covered pots in my oven and I feel safe with the temp at 215F overnight. My oven shuts off after 7 hours anyway. And personally, I love waking up the smell of a rich soup in the kitchen.

    I enjoyed this video, thanks for inspiration. I wonder if cooking onions overnight in my slow cooker would work. I like to place my slow cooker on my screened porch when cooking foods with very strong aroma.

    Holy Cow! What an AMAZING idea!! I've had onion ends in my freezer for a while now, but not enough of the other veggies for "Veggie Stock" I never even thought of doing just plain onion stock! So now, I've got my instant pot going with onion ends in it. set for 4 hrs. lol. . I had enough ends to do a whole full pot! (two gallon bags full) Thank you Miss Leissa for the amazing idea! 🙂

    If I put this on the stove at 5 AM, how long would it take for it to be ready? do I hard boil it or just simmer? I can't believe the amount of onions I have wasted because I forget about the to lol 🙂

    I canned some onions, and also canned the broth from when I cooked the onions before canning.. I figured I'll use it wherever I would normally add water, like stew.
    My mom asked me why I would can "onion water"! Mom! 🤦‍♀️

    Since vegetable stock is 30 minutes for pints and 35 minutes for quarts, and onion stock is a vegetable stock wouldn't you want to process the pints for 30 minutes, not 15 minutes like you stated?

    Aw, now see I can't just cut up a beautiful whole onion for stock. But I can definitely save the clean dried onion skins, root ends, and bits left after chopping delicious aromatic onions for stock. Usually I wait to use them when I've also got freezer baggies full of leftover chicken bones so they can be shared between multiple batches in my 6 qt Instant Pot. I love the inspiration from Michelle, your friend AllSorts, many years ago and how she got multiple batches of broth. Your broth came out so incredibly rich looking! I definitely have to get another batch going soon. I love, love the gorgeous wooden racks you've been using under your canning jars.
