chicken stock

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I'm making my second batch of chicken stock now. After simmering, covered,

for 20 hours, about half the water has evaporated. Is this normal? What are

your experiences?

When I didn't know about this list, I asked Sally if I was supposed to

reconstitute the lost water, and she said yes, but that if it is covered

simmering it shouldn't boil away.

Do your stocks boil away water? Any suggestions if this is abnormal?

Thanks,

Chris

" What can one say of a soul, of a heart, filled with compassion? It is a

heart which burns with love for every creature: for human beings, birds, and

animals, for serpents and for demons. The thought of them and the sight of

them make the tears of the saint flow. And this immense and intense

compassion, which flows from the heart of the saints, makes them unable to

bear the sight of the smallest, most insignificant wound in any creature.

Thus they pray ceaselessly, with tears, even for animals, for enemies of the

truth, and for those who do them wrong. "
