Flavorful Fondue Broth - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    750 ml red wine
    2 cups water
    2 beef bouillon cubes
    4 garlic cloves, sliced thin
    4 dried tomatoes, chopped (not packed in oil)
    1 tablespoon onion paste, fried (available at Asian markets)
    3 tablespoons fresh chives
    3 tablespoons rosemary
    2 -4 bay leaves
    1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (to taste)
    1 (8 ounce) package baby portabella mushrooms (or other flavorful mushrooms)
    1 red potatoes, big dice
Preparation
    Mix all ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour. Strain into lit fondue pot and bring to high simmer.
    I've so far tried beef, veges and shrimp, shrimp being my fav in this broth. I also don't add salt, but you may prefer to add.
    Serve with any of the great fondue dippers found on Zaar -- I like horseradish and wasabi sauces. Sriracha sauce is personal favorite.
    Possible additions:
    For beef, 1T Worcestershire sauce.
    For chicken/shrimp, sliced fresh ginger and 1T soy sauce.
