Product description

The essential ingredient in a proper chicken stock, the most versatile of all the bone broths. Simply add to the pot with selected vegetables and aromatics for a soothing white stock or roasted first for a deeply coloured and richly flavoured brown stock - chicken broth gives essential depth to a vast range of cuisines. 

Chef Valentine Warner says that "to throw away the wreckage of a savaged Sunday chicken or indeed a freshly filleted and butchered bird is no less than a crime. Chicken stock or bone broth, whether a brown (roasted) or white (unroasted) is delicious as either sauce bases for both fishes and meats, or restorative in hot and spicy broths or more European broths and thicker soups.

Crab meat and sweetcorn soup, being a favourite and chicken stock is essential. I crave the aforementioned broths and so save those carcasses in the freezer that winter sniffles be expelled with a hot bowl in hand. Remember if using one from a roast to take out the internal lemon (if used) and wash the residual citrus bitterness away before simmering.

I have always wondered if once dried the carcass would be good added to the charcoal over which a chicken is grilling, but have yet to try this macabre scenario!"
