Roasting the bones and vegetables deepens the flavor of the stock. To cool to room temperature quickly, place stock in a large stainless steel bowl set in a larger bowl of ice water; stir frequently. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days, or freeze for up to three months.
