Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I feel kind of dumb asking this question. I'm about to make my first batch of chicken stock. It says that after the broth is done to put it in the fridge until the fat rises to the top and congeals, then it says to skim off the fat but it doesn't say what to do with it??? Is that fat then to be used as cooking grease? What do I do with it? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 It doesn't say what to do with it because they mean skim it off and throw it away. I have made lots of chicken stock; no more MSG for this family. You don't have to do all that work with putting it in the fridge. Just skim off the stuff on top that looks like scum after it boils for a while. Its bubbly and gross looking. You would not want to eat it. I would not let it all congeal and take out the other fats other than scum because I also believe this is healthy. Know that most children with autism are reportedly very low in cholesterol and sometimes replenishing it, takes away many symptoms. Heidi N I feel kind of dumb asking this question.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Okay, thank you. I did wonder about that since the book promotes eating healthy fat so much I tried to give it my teen to drink straight, she didn't want anything to do with it with all the fat in, so I may have to at least remove part of it.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I wanted to share an idea of what to do with the chicken broth. I read in a diet book one time to take broth and put it into ice cube trays and freeze it. Then just put the frozen cubes in a freezer baggie and whenever you cook something that you would normally add water to, add a couple of frozen cubes instead. I read that when you add water to food while cooking it can deplete some of the nutrients. I've been doing this for a few years (just with store-bought broth) and I love it, it really adds flavor to your food ez wrote: Thanks, Heidi!!Ambitionn01aol wrote: It doesn't say what to do with it because they mean skim it off and throw it away.
