    6Chicken Broth

    To make the chicken broth, rst let

    your chicken (5)cool enough so thatyou can remove the meat and skin

    without burning your ngers. Or, cover,

    put in the fridge, and clean the chicken

    the next day.

    Carefully remove the meat from the

    bones (6). Toss the skin in with thebones, to avour the stock. The reserved

    chicken can be eaten in a sandwich,frozen, or reserved for Homemade

    Chicken Noodle Soup (page 7).

    Place chicken bones and skin in a big,

    empty pot.

    Roughly cut up the celery, carrots

    and onions (7). The celery can be a bityellow, the carrots can be cleaned but

    unpeeled. Add to your pot. Add bay leaf,

    peppercorns.

    Add a bunch of water, about 4-6 cups,

    depending on the size of your pot. It is

    not necessary to cover the ingredients

    with water entirely (8).

    Bring the ingredients to a boil, and then reduce heat, and cover. Adjust the heat to a slow

    simmer (blub, blub) and let cook for 1.5 to 2 hours. Stir occasionally. Your house will smell

    great. The broth with become a nice golden colour (9).

    Using a large colander or pasta strainer, strain the stock into a clean bowl with a spout (foreasy pouring) (10).

    Pour the stock into jars (11). Any leftover jar will do (I save pickle jars, jam jars, and plasticcontainers for just this purpose). Do not ll them too full. The stock will expand when it

    freezes, so its important to leave at least (1 cm) free at the top of the container.

    As the stock cools, the fat quickly rises to the top. Leave it there for now, its easier to remove

    when the broth is well cooled.

    Put tops on the containers or jars, and store in the fridge for 2-3 days, or in the freezer for 3-4months. Dont be afraid to freeze glass. Ive had more plastic containers shatter than glass.
