24 HOUR CHICKEN BONE BROTH
- 2 chicken's worth of chicken bones
- water
- black peppercorns
- bay leaf
- square of kombu seaweed
- splash of apple cider vinegar
- 1.5 carrots
- 4 stalks of celery
- 1 onion
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 6 garlic cloves
- parsley sprigs
- thyme
Start with leftover chicken bones (about two chicken’s worth). I like to add a few feet and necks as well that I grab from the butcher for extra gelatin. Add bones to the bottom of a large pot and fill enough water to cover by 3 inches. Add a few black peppercorns, bay leaves, a square of kombu seaweed, and a splash of apple cider vinegar. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low. Cover pot. Simmer overnight for 12 hours. The next day, add 1.5 sliced carrots, 4 stalks of chopped celery, 1 onion cut into large chunks, 2 sprigs rosemary, 6 cloves of garlic, and let simmer for another 10 hours. During the last 2 hours of cooking, add parsley sprigs, thyme, and a bit more rosemary. Strain through a mesh sieve and adjust salt to taste. I like to reheat mine with a little turmeric, coconut milk, and chili flakes, and garnish with Maldon salt and fresh herbs.
