The basis for soups… • Stock: the liquid prepared by boiling meat bones with or without vegetables (not edible on its own)
Broth: The water in which meat, fish or vegetables has been boiled and seasoned (edible on its own) not cooked as long as stock, contains less gelatin
Bouillon: Concentrated broth can be obtained by dissolving a commercially prepared bouillon cube or granules.
Consommé (clear soup): Meat stock that has been concentrated (stronger in flavor, water evaporated out), seasoned, and clarified. Can be substituted for broth, stronger flavor.
Four basic types of stock… White - made from Chicken & Mirepoix
How to make a chicken stock • Cut up chicken parts, remove excess fat pieces and skin • Place in large pot with 2 qts water • Bring to boil in simmer 1 hour • Skim top of foam occasionally • Strain liquid from meat • Refrigerate liquid, cool and scrape off fat • Separate chicken from bones for use in recipe
