You can use the stock in stews, curries, sauces, not just soup.

Re: Lentils
Speaking of stock...My father-in-law was a chef. He said that one boring afternoon they were playing football in the kitchen, as you do.
Many chefs wear clogs, not proper shoes, and one lad's clog flew off. They searched and searched without any success, only to find it two days later in the stock pot.

Re: Lentils
Chef's clogs are usually slip on ( and very much slip off in the above instance!) with no heelWhen I started working in a couple of large factories in the 1970s, Lancashire clogs were still issued for wear in some of the production areas; they have wooden soles and leather uppers. They were eventually replaced by modern safety shoes.
Google for 'chefs clogs' and 'Lancashire clogs' to see illustrations.
Lancashire clogs are still available from small independent makers
