Adam said, "Geeze, did you make enough stew for two people?" He was very relieved when I told him it was not stew, but chicken stock in the making. Because it looked kind of gross with chicken bits and veggie scraps floating around.
I loosely followed this recipe which I had run across a while ago. I started saving chicken carcasses and scraps from carrots, celery, and onions. I also had a leek in the fridge to use up. It came together with minimal effort. The worst of course being cleaning the pot afterwards, only because of it's awkward large size.
I had been saving yogurt containers for storing stock in the freezer, so this is very much a tightwad endeavor.
I have big plans for this broth! Especially since the weather is cooling off, it will be soup city! This week we'll have butternut soup or risotto or both.
