Recipe by Pine View Farms
Ingredients
1 bag Pine View Farms chicken bones
3 carrots
3 sticks celery
1 onion whole
2 bay leaves
1 tsp salt
10 peppercorns
2-3 star anise pods
water
Directions
- Optional: Preheat oven to 375F and roast bones in a roaster, uncovered for 30-45 minutes to brown them nicely. This gives a darker coloured broth.
- Put your chicken bones in a stock pot along with vegetables and spices and cover with water.
- Simmer for 2 and up to 8 hours. Remove from heat and remove bones and vegetables when cool enough to handle. Remove any meat from the bones and save to add to chicken noodle soup if you like. Pour broth through strainer into another pot to remove solids. Salt broth to taste.
- Serve the broth over cooked fine egg noodles in chicken noodle soup or save for other uses like risotto, gravy etc.
Note: Do not store leftover soup with noodles.
Pressure Pot Method:
- Combine all ingredients in your pressure pot. Cover with water.
- Press the "soup" button on your pot OR set pressure cook time to 1 hour.
- Let pressure go down naturally at the end.
- Strain solids out of broth, season to taste and use in your favourite recipes.
