Meat can be returned to broth, cooled, and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Skim fat from cold broth, then reheat. 4. For the vegetables: Add potatoes to broth and bring to simmer over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 6 minutes. Add carrots and cook 10 minutes longer. Ass asparagus and continue to cook until all vegetables are tender, 3-5 minutes longer. 5.
