Whenever you have a family dinner of chicken, save all the bones; put them in the freezer until you accumulate the equivalent of bones from one to two chickens.
Put bones, and meat and fat scraps, in a pan, and cover with water (measure the water by quarts)
For each quart of water, add 1-2 Tbs cider vinegar (preferably organic), 1 tsp. salt, 2-3 bay leaves. If you want, you can add onions, etc, but it's not necessary.
Simmer the bones 1-2 hours. Strain and put the broth in another (the narrower the better) pan. When partially cooled, put in the refrigerator. The next day, skim off the fat. Put the broth in pint (or quart) containers and freeze.
It can be used as a base for pureed vegetable soups or other soups, or alone (especially if you have a cold)
I read somewhere that the 1 cup of broth provides the calcium of 1 quart of milk.
I've done this for 35 years, and believe it has kept me from having arthritis |
