This recipe for an intense, lovely chicken stock is full of deep flavors and provides a perfect base for soup. Feel free to use leftover bones from roast chicken, but at least half of the bones should be raw. Ask your butcher for feet, heads and wings, which are all high in gelatin and will lend body to the stock. Once cooled, freeze the stock in old 32-ounce yogurt containers, which have the added benefit of being premeasured.

Time 9h

Yield About 6 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 pounds raw chicken bones
6 quarts water
2 onions, unpeeled, quartered
2 carrots, peeled and halved crosswise
2 celery stalks, halved crosswise
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
2 bay leaves
4 thyme sprigs
5 parsley sprigs (or 10 stems)
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Put everything but the vinegar in a large stockpot. Bring the stock to a boil over high heat, then turn down to a simmer.
  • Skim off any foam that rises to the surface. Add the vinegar. (It helps draw out nutrients and minerals from the bones into the stock.)
  • Simmer the stock for 6 to 8 hours, covered, keeping an eye on it to make sure it stays at a simmer.
  • Strain the stock through a fine-meshed sieve. Let cool.
  • Scrape the fat that rises to the top. (Save it in the fridge or freezer for matzoh ball soup.) Refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
