Basic Poultry Broth

Have the remains of a roasted turkey or chicken? Then you have almost everything you need for a savory, healthful poultry broth that is completely sodium-free!

Ingredients

• 1 chicken or turkey carcass, left over from a roasted dinner
• Enough water to cover the bones
• A pinch of dried rosemary
• A pinch of dried thyme

Directions

1. Place all items in a very large pot or stock pot and bring to a boil.
2. Reduce to simmer, cover, and cook on low heat for 1 hour. Use a degreaser cup to remove fat from the broth.
3. Strain the broth, removing all bones.
4. If you don’t have a degreaser cup, chill the broth and then scrape off the hardened top layer of fat.
5. Fill individual Ziploc bags with 2 cups of broth each and freeze for later use.

This broth is perfect as a base for...

• Soups and stews
• Pasta and rice dishes
• And more!
