Skinnymixers Stock Concentrate Paste

Thermomix Stock Paste or Stock Concentrate, is typically the very first recipe that you make in your Thermomix with the help of your consultant.

There is something special about making your own stock paste and there is really no taste comparison to bought chicken stock. 

If you are someone who likes to be mindful of what additives or ingredients that you include in your cooking, making your own stock paste should be high on your to-do list.

The conversion to liquid stock is 1 Tbsp per 500 g water.

This healthy Thermomix recipe features in our Top 12 Thermomix Recipes to Freeze.

Here is a challenge: if you haven’t yet made my stock concentrate, I dare you to make the chicken one and recook a meal you make regularly of mine without home made stock concentrate. The difference will blow your mind!

  • 100 g leek - roughly chopped (use the green tops for low fodmap)
  • 1 large brown onion - peeled and quartered (replace with spring onion for low fodmap)

  • A handful of mixed fresh herbs - parsley, sage, thyme, rosemary
  • 5 garlic cloves - peeled or 25 g or 0.9 oz garlic infused olive oil
  • 3 black peppercorns

  • 150 g rock salt

Notes

Store in the refrigerator in an airtight glass jar for up to 6 months, or in the freezer if desired. You can easily freeze this and scoop straight from the freezer as it doesn't freeze solid due to the salt content.

  1. Yum ! I was wondering if canning it might make it shelf storable ? Any ideas on how to make it shelf safe ? Thank you !

      1. Hi Amy. An unsolicited comment if I may. The challenge is ensuring appropriate acidity. I did can this recipe once using a pressure canner (not my electric pressure cooker, which I trust to “can” other things but not this.) It is high in salt, which Botulinin does not like, but absent the right PH it is a challenge to keep safe and not really worth the risk of canning IMHO. In part this is because you don’t keep much of it so even a crowded freezer like mine is a viable place to store it.

        How I canned it during my experimental run.

        As the paste is pretty thick, heat is slow to transfer through it so I held at high pressure (standard ball jar, Presto 23 QT) for 35 minutes. I did test run at 20 minutes first and was not convinced that the center of my Ball jar got hot enough for long enough.

        No doubt I am being a bit conservative, but you don’t get second chances with Botulinum toxins. There is a noticeable taste impact. The US has some great resources on this if you have not come across them before: https://nchfp.uga.edu/index.html#gsc.tab=0

  2. My daughter can’t have the tomato or the garlic… and suggestions on what I can replace with? (She can have garlic infused oil)

    I’ve been using the recipe for years and it’s my fave by far –
