Wash the bones. Place in a roasting pan and place the pan in an oven preheated to 200 C. and cook to a dark brown.
When cooked, separate the bones from the fat and transfer them to a stock pot. Cover with COLD water and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to a simmer. Remove any scum from the surface as it forms.
Strain and reserve the fat.
Brown the mirepoix in some of the reserved fat, strain and add to the stock.
Add the tomato paste and the spice bag.
Continue to simmer for 6 to 8 hours, skimming frequently. Add water as necessary to maintain the level.

NOTES : Avoid using burnt bones as the resulting stock will be very dark in colour and have a bitter flavour.
Old, smelly meat, bones or decaying vegetables will produce an unpleasant flavour and cause it to deteriorate rapidly.
Do not stir or undesirable scum will be returned into the liquid.
Scum should be removed as it collects, or it may blend into the stock and spoil the colour and flavour.
 Always simmer stocks. Rapid boiling causes cloudiness and evaporation.
Never add salt to a stock.
YIELD: 2 LITRES
