Rich Homemade Chicken Broth Food

RICH CHICKEN STOCK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Combine chicken bones, onions, celery, and carrots in a large roasting pan; toss with oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Roast until the bones and vegetables are a rich golden brown, about 30 to 40 minutes.
• Transfer the bones and vegetables to a large stockpot, add 12 cups cold water, and the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 4 hours, skimming the scum that rises to the top with a ladle every 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain through a mesh strainer into a clean pot. Place back on the stove over high heat and cook until reduced by half. Use immediately or let cool to room temperature, cover, and refrigerate or freeze until ready to use.

RICH HOMEMADE CHICKEN BROTH

Steps:

• Place carrots, celery, and onion in a large stockpot. Place garlic on top of vegetables, making sure it does not touch the bottom of the pan. Lay chicken on top of garlic. Add enough water to cover chicken by about 1/2 inch. Add pepper and chicken base.
• Make a bouquet garni bag by placing cheesecloth on a work surface and adding thyme, rosemary, and sage leaves. Tie cheesecloth into a bundle, and place in the stockpot.
• Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until chicken is falling apart, no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove chicken to a large shallow bowl, allow to cool, and reserve for later use. Strain broth into a very large bowl, discarding vegetables, garlic, and bouquet garni bag.

CHICKEN BROTH

Steps:

• Combine the chicken, vegetables, herbs, and peppercorns in a large stockpot. Pour in enough water to just cover the chicken completely. Heat the water to just under a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a very low simmer, so that 1 or 2 bubbles break the surface of the broth about once a minute. Skim any fat and scum from the surface with a ladle, large spoon, or skimmer. (To prevent losing a lot of stock when skimming, put the skimmed liquid into a degreasing cup, and return any useable broth back to the pot.) Cook for about 1 hour or until the chicken is cooked through but not dry.
• Remove the chicken from the pot, but continue to simmer the broth. Cool the chicken for about 10 minutes. Cut the chicken meat from the bone, and reserve for a chicken salad, soup, or other recipe. Return the bones to the pot and cook for 1 hour.
• Strain into a non-reactive container, like another pot, a large bowl, or plastic quart or pint containers. Fill the sink with a mixture of ice and cold water so it comes about halfway up the sides of the container. Nestle the broth in the ice bath. (Stirring the broth speeds up the cooling process.) Cover and refrigerate or freeze the broth for future use. Broth can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If the broth is unused after 5 days bring it to a boil before using.

BONE BROTH

Steps:

• Break the chicken carcass into a large pan and add the onion, 1.5 litres of water, the lemon juice and bay leaves. Cover and simmer for 40 mins. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, to make things a bit easier to handle.
• Place a colander over a bowl and scoop out all the bones into the colander. Pick through them, stripping off the chicken and returning it with any onion as you work your way down the pile of bones.
• Return any broth from the bowl to the pan - and any jellified roasting juices - along with the chilli, ground coriander, cumin, coriander stems, lemon zest and garlic. Cook for a few mins until just bubbling - don't overboil as you will spoil the delicate flavours. Taste, and season only if you need to. Meanwhile, heat the rice following pack instructions, then toss with the coriander leaves. Ladle the broth into bowls and top with the rice.

HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN BROTH

Steps:

• Place the chicken in your largest stock pot. Add the carrots, celery, onion, bay leaf, garlic, parsley, thyme and peppercorns. Pour in the cold water and salt, adding more water (if necessary) to cover the chicken. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat; cover the pot (leaving just a small gap to allow some steam to escape). Simmer for 1 ½ hours, skimming the top occasionally.
• Turn off the heat and remove the chicken from the pot. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the skin and bones. Save the meat to use in a recipe and discard the skin and bones. Strain the contents of the pot through a colander into a large bowl or other pot; discard the solids. Pack the broth in containers and refrigerate for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 6 months.

Steps:

• Rinse chicken quarters and necks under cold water and place in an 11-quart stockpot. Cut onions, carrots, and celery in half and add to pot along with bay leaves, peppercorns, and dill sprigs. Add enough cold water to cover, about 4 1/2 quarts.
• Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer, skimming off any scum that rises to the surface, about 4 hours.
• Remove pot from heat and strain broth through a cheesecloth-lined sieve, discarding solids. Let broth cool to room temperature and refrigerate overnight. Remove any solidified fat from the surface (and save for cooking, if desired). Broth can be kept refrigerated for 2 days or frozen.
