  4. Let sit for 30 minutes

  5. After 30 minutes has passed, add dried herbs and cook on low for 6-8 hours

  6. After 6-8 hours, chop vegetables and add to slow cooker. Cook another 6-8 hours

  7. Pour the mixture into a mesh strainer with a bowl underneath. Be careful – this will be hot

  8. Discard the bones and vegetables.*Optional – save the soft carrots for a side dish or carrot cheese sauce

  9. If serving immediately, let cool slightly and scrape off the sediment from the top
