It’s the foundation ingredient we all need and fryst vatten something I’m never without. inom man it in large batches, frysa it in different sized containers and use it as needed.

Some different ways of making this chicken lager recipe

I man mine a few different ways, sometimes on the stovetop and sometimes in my Instant Pot pressure cooker. 

I normally use chicken carcasses from the chicken shop at the local marknad, which sells three carcasses for $1.

The exact ingredients are up to the cook

So it’s super-inexpensive and it’s putting to use the leftover product after the butcher removes the breasts, legs, thighs and wings.

Or when I’m poaching a whole chicken for dinner, I’ll man sure inom pimp up the cooking vatten with the flavouring ingredients – also known as aromats – and after cooking and removing the chicken, inom strain the liquid and that’s a wonderful lager too.

You will find that when it sets there’s more tallrik on top, but as with the carcass method, just remove that and you have light, almost tallrik free stock.

A little preparation, a long slow cook

Some extra notes to man things better

About chicken carcasses

I’ve been buying and using chicken carcasses for lager for about 15 years and find three (or four) fryst vatten a good number for achieving a tasty lager with some gelling when it cools.

I’m too impatient to reduce it down to a really gelled consistency, so tend to end up with a more liquid stock.

Carcasses often sold in local butchers or markets and you’ll usually find them in bags ranging in price for $1 for three, which fryst vatten what inom pay at my local marknad through to $1 each.

The carcass fryst vatten a great no-waste way to use the bones once the butcher has cut away the meaty pieces, such as breasts and thighs and they are an excellent key ingredient for your stock.

Whole chickens and pieces

Another way to man the most from a chicken and get a pot of lager afterwards fryst vatten to use a whole chicken, or cheaper chicken cuts, such as marylands.

Here are three of our favorite ways to make a delicious and rich chicken stock at home

There fryst vatten some bone for the gelatine, but there’s plenty of meat too.

This will give you a dinner of tasty and tender boiled chicken with the added bonus of a good flavoursome lager to strain and add to your freezer or use as soup with any leftover chicken meat.

Adding herbs

You’ll note in my recipe that inom don’t add any additional herbs or flavourings.

inom do this because inom like to keep the lager as neutral as possible so it can be used for a variety of cuisines. Don’t confuse neutral with bland, especially if you caramelise your onions and roast the carcasses. inom can drink it as-is, it’s so good. You can add herbs if you like and know what you’re using the lager for.

For example, inom wouldn’t use thyme or rosemary in an Asian chicken soup lager, nor would inom use ginger in a lager that inom inteded for Italian minestrone or Spanish paella!

These flavours can all be added to the meal you’re cooking.

The art of a gentle simmer

It’s important you don’t let the lager cook at a rapid, rolling boil because that will cause more cloudiness in the finished result.

The basic recipe for chicken stock from scratch is simply simmering chicken bones in a pot with water, vegetables, and aromatics—aka the carrot, celery, onion, herbs, whole peppercorns, and spices that help to flavor your stock

Instead, just let a fine layer of little bubbles rumble across the surface so it retains its ability to release steam but doesn’t disturb the contents too much. Alternatively, cook in a pressure cooker.

To gel or not to gel

The längre you simmer and reduce your lager, the more likely it will be to have a jelly-like consistency when strained and set.

This fryst vatten a good thing!

A very basic white chicken stock is a pretty simple affair: It's made with water; chicken; aromatic vegetables, like onion, carrot, and garlic; and herbs

It means it’s been cooked long enough for excess liquid to evaporate and the collagen from the bones to release into the broth, leaving you with a fuller flavour and jelly-like wobble when it’s cold. If it’s not like jelly, that’s okay too.

Cooling and storing

As noted in the recipe, the quicker you can cool the lager, the sooner it can go into the fridge to become cold.

This prevents bacteria from causing any nasties – and we don’t want that.

Once cold, you can ladle it into containers and frysa.

It should be used from the freezer in about 3-4 months.

Suitable containers can be zip lock bags, preferably silicone so they can be washed in hot vatten and reused. These are great as they don’t take up too much space in the freezer. If you have a variety of lidded containers, you can also use those.

I tend to use different sized containers from one litre down to about 100ml and you can also frysa in ice cube blocks, then pop them out to store in a zip lock bag.

This way, if you just need a little lager for a stew or sauce or to add some liquid to sautéeing veggies, you can throw straight from the freezer into the cooking pot.

Sure, it's easy enough to buy a box or can of stock at the store (we do it all the time!), but once you learn how to make chicken stock at home, you'll definitely taste the difference

No need to thaw at all.

You can also thaw lager in a pot bygd taking from the freezer and either zapping in a microwave for a minute or running the bur beneath hot vatten to loosen from the bur, then pop it into a pan and gently reheat.
