To cook 1 pound of pasta, it is recommended that you use 4 quarts of water. That means you will need a 6-quart pot. (In addition to the water, the pasta needs to fit in as well.) If you cook a lot of pasta it is worth investing in a big pot â itâs also really useful for other dishes, especially for making soups.
The bones and cartilage of most meats can be used, including poultry, beef, lamb or fish. Pork bones are not generally used for making broth that is cooked for many hours and stored to be re-heated and used later, though they may be included in stew and soup recipes. Add bones to stockpot with 1 1/2 quarts of cold water, or enough to cover the bones. 2  Slowly bring to a boil, then turn down and simmer gently. 3  Add peppercorns, garlic, onions, and 2-3 teaspoons vinegar. 4  Cook half-covered, for 4+ hours.
