Chicken Stock

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

White stock made with boiling fowl and knuckle of veal for maximum flavour. Cheaper versions use carcass, skin and giblets plus poultry scarps; or giblets only. Always include celery, a few root vegetables and herbs.

Uses: Good poultry flavor, pale color. An excellent general purpose stock for all types of soups, sauces for vegetables and white meat dishes, moistening white meat casseroles and pies and boiling rice for savory dishes or for risottos.
