CHICKEN STOCK

Steps:

• Place the chickens, onions, carrots, celery, parsnips, parsley, thyme, dill, garlic, and seasonings in a 16 to 20-quart stockpot. Add 7 quarts of water and bring to a boil. Simmer, uncovered, for 4 hours. Strain the entire contents of the pot through a colander and discard the solids. Chill the stock overnight. The next day, remove the surface fat. Use immediately or pack in containers and freeze for up to 3 months.

ROASTED CHICKEN STOCK

Steps:

• To make this stock in an Instant Pot: Add the chicken carcass to a 3- or 6-quart Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker. Chop the onion into eighths, and slice the garlic head in half crosswise to expose the cloves; dump the alliums into the pot over the chicken. Crush the bay leaves and add, along with the salt, black peppercorns, and turmeric. Add enough cold water to reach the max line in the 3-quart or to cover the bones in the 6-quart (5 to 6 cups). Gently stir and cover with the lid. Pressure-cook on high for 1 hour and let the pressure release naturally.
• To make this stock on the stove: Follow Step 1, but place all of the ingredients, including the water, into a large heavy-bottomed pot, such as a Dutch oven or stock pot, and gently stir. Bring to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until the stock is deeply golden, the chicken bones are falling apart at the joints when you try to pick them up and the vegetables have turned to mush, about 3 hours.
• Strain the contents of the pot through a colander set over a large bowl; press the bones to get out all of the liquid. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with salt as desired. Ladle the stock into large mugs for sipping, or use as an ingredient in your cooking. Alternatively, you can let the strained stock cool slightly before transferring into quart containers and storing in the refrigerator.
• This chicken stock will keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Heat individual portions in coffee mugs to drink in the morning for breakfast, or use as a base for soups, stews and porridges throughout the week.

MOCK CHICKEN

• Saute onion in butter until clear.
• Add tomatoes.
• When tomatoes are softened, add mixed herbs, salt and pepper.
• Remove from heat.
• Add beaten egg.
• Return to heat and cook until thickened.
• Serve on savoury biscuits.

QUICK CHICKEN STOCK

Steps:

• Cut the wings off the chicken, then separate the leg-thigh quarters from the carcass. Cut the back away from the breast. Pull the skin off of the backbone and legs-thighs and put it aside. Leave the skin on the breast. Set the leg-thigh quarters and the breast aside. Remove as much meat as you can - without going crazy - from the wings; dice and refrigerate.
• Combine what's left of the wings with the backbone, onion, carrot, celery and bay leaf in a large pot with 4 cups water and turn the heat to high.
• Bring almost to a boil, then lower the heat so the mixture sends up a few bubbles at a time. Cook for 30 minutes, or an hour if you have more time.
• Cool slightly and strain, pressing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard the solids.

CHICKEN STOCK

Steps:

• Put everything but the vinegar in a large stockpot. Bring the stock to a boil over high heat, then turn down to a simmer.
• Skim off any foam that rises to the surface. Add the vinegar. (It helps draw out nutrients and minerals from the bones into the stock.)
• Simmer the stock for 6 to 8 hours, covered, keeping an eye on it to make sure it stays at a simmer.
• Strain the stock through a fine-meshed sieve. Let cool.
• Scrape the fat that rises to the top. (Save it in the fridge or freezer for matzoh ball soup.) Refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
