Ingredients:
One whole pastured chicken from a farmer you can trust, or at least organic one preferably not fed soy
Water, filtered
Scraps from organic celery, carrots, onions ( yes I mean the leafs of celery, unpeeled carrots, and brown skins from onions)
Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
3-5 garlic cloves, busted open to release their good medicinal properties
In a crock pot add add ingredients with enough water to fill to the top.
Turn on low and cook for 8 hours
Then remove chicken, pull all the meat from the bones, add back to the broth in the crock pot the bones and all skin, joint and carcass pieces.
Add more filtered water to bring water level up to the top again. Cook 8 ,
More hours or over night.
Cook and either freeze or bottle and keep refrigerated.
This will be more like a thick gel consistency. Because it has the gelatinous bone matter in it which has amazing healing properties. Simply heat from cold and drink warm or use as a soup base.
I do this at least once a month so that I am never left having to buy the runny, thin boxed broth ever!
What do I use the meat for you might ask?
Chicken enchiladas or tacos, or nachos (yes we love Mexican)
Chicken and rice soup
Chicken salad
The possibilities as endless, get creative!
