Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pieces chicken carcass (broken into)
  • 2 medium onions coarsely chopped
  • 2 carrots (peeled and coarsely chopped)
  • 2 celery stalks (coarsely chopped)
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp sage
  • 2 leaves bay
  • 1 tbsp black peppercorns
  • leaves Optional spices: sometimes I add fresh sprigs of rosemary (fresh parsley, celery)

Instruction

  • In a stock pot, cover the chicken pieces completely with water.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat, then simmer gently for about 30 minutes.
  • After the 30 minutes, add the chopped vegetables and spices.
  • Simmer uncovered for about 3 hours, adding water as needed.
  • After 3 hours, strain the broth. I throw out all the chunks. (I used to try to save everything for my soup, but there are too many small bones.)
  • Now you have stock for many delicious dishes!
