Another easy thing to make at home.
Collect the vegetable scraps and cook in double its quantity in filtered water, and whole spices.
One of my favorite is a Nameko and shiitake mushroom stalks/stipe are tough so to me the perfect use of such tough stem is to extract all its flavor in a mushroom broth or dashi.
You can literally use all of your kitchen scraps like onion and garlic skin, carrot tops, outer layer of cabbage, mint and oregano stems basically any part of the vegetable that you would throw into your compost.
