Notes

Recipe Card Tips

  • Avoid too much fat and skin with the bones. It makes the finished broth greasy instead of clean-tasting.
  • Once chilled, the fat rises and congeals on top, making it easy to skim off for a leaner broth.
  • Freeze in a few different container sizes so you always have the right amount on hand for whatever recipe you're making.
