Basic vegetable stock can help you with a lot of recipes -- from soups to gravies. It has a neutral flavour and desirable consistency that make it very versatile. You can collect vegetable stock while cooking veggies for other items like subzis, pulaos, etc. , and use it on the same day, or store it in the fridge for using later. However, to ensure freshness and flavour, do not stock for more than a day.
