meal, with a lot of meat still on it (she didn't like dealing with leftovers). I asked if I could take the carcasse home with us (we'd brought up a cooler with pumkin pies and other goodies in it), got it
and made soup with it.
Sounds like something I'd do. My local GFS is selling rotisserie
chickens for U$3 each. I save the carcasses after stripping the meaat. Makes some very nice stock ... and inexpensive.
I do that also with the rotisserie chickens we get.
One of the few things that smarty-pants Bobby Flay got right:
Title: Rich Chicken Stock
Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Herbs
Yield: 3 Pints
I just use water, a bit of salt and Bragg's Seasoning for making stock. Then after I debone the bird, I'll add some turmeric.
We all have our ways of getting it done. But, I've *always* used
veggies as a part of my stock making ... be it poultry or
beef/pork/etc.
A free and easy addition to this stock is to bung in any celery leaves youmay have hanging about. I've never canned this - just jarred it in
old mayonnaise (or similar) jars and refigerated it for up to a month
or so.
I'll use either old mayo (if they're glass) jars or some of my canning jars. A reuseabale lid, basic information on a piece of masking tape
and into the fridge they go.

I've got a nice selection of glass screw-top jars. Currently when I
buy mayonnaise I get the dispenser squeeze bottles rather than the
"bulk"
sized jugs. Haven't see Duke's in the squeezers yet. Just Hellmn's3
All kindsw chicken projects in my future. Humphrey's ran a specialsucky-bagged in the freezer. The other goes into the big crockpot to

We buy the quart jars of avocado oil mayo (Chosen Foods brand) at
Costco if possible. It only comes in plastic jars but if we can't get
it, we'll buy other brands, some of which come in glass jars. Plus, I
have a lot of qt canning jars so I've got plenty of stock storage available.

Sounds good. We've been on the road for a while so no fancy cooking. At our older daughter's currently; she did a simple salmon (large fillet,
cut down) fry with salt, pepper, not sure what other seasoning last
night for supper. With saffron rice and peas, easy and tasty.
