Re: How do you make chicken broth?
I use leftover chicken bones, sometimes from a roast chicken, sometimes uncooked. If I cut up a whole chicken myself, I put wings and backs in the freezer until I have enough for broth. Then I just boil the chicken parts with an onion (quartered), a couple carrots, a couple stalks of celery, a couple bay leaves, a few peppercorns. If I have it I may toss in some thyme sprigs or marjoram. I salt when it's done. I do this in my pasta pot so that I can just lift out the insert with all the bones and veggies when I'm done and the broth is already pretty much strained.
