After the water comes to a boil, skim off the foam with a spoon, season the broth to taste with salt, and simmer the aspic on low heat for 2 hours. Then add the spices (bay leaf and peppercorns) and vegetables. Peel the carrot, and wash the onion thoroughly, skin and all. Continue cooking the aspic with the spices and vegetables for another 1 hour until the meat is fully done and comes completely off the bones. Onion cooked in its skin will give the broth a golden, appetizing color.
