Description

A clear, golden broth like the one in the photo needs no tricks. It's comforting when you're tired or have a cold, nourishing without weighing you down, and provides essential minerals and proteins. With a chicken carcass from a roast chicken or cut up yourself, you can easily prepare a healthy, flavourful base for many recipes. More economical, with no waste, and much tastier than commercial broths.
