From the Chef
“Todd Jurich has what he calls the perfect chicken stock, passed down from chef to chef for more than 30 years.”
Ingredients
Chicken bones/carcass
Mirepoix vegetables
Aromatics (i.e. basil, peppercorns, thyme, bouquet garni)
Fresh herbs
Instructions
1. Put chicken bones/carcass in pot of cold water just to cover.
2. Bring water to a boil; turn off fire.
3. Cover; let steep 30-45 minutes.
4. Remove lid, skim off residue.
5. Add mirepoix vegetables cut in large pieces.
6. Bring stock to a boil. Turn off heat; cover, steep for 1 hour. (This adds the flavor of the vegetables without them breaking down and turning the stock cloudy.)
7. Remove residue. Add aromatics (i.e. basil, peppercorns, thyme, bouquet garni); bring to a simmer. Turn off heat; steep for 1 hour.
8. Remove vegetables; strain. Return to stove.
9. Add fresh herbs; simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes.
10. Strain again.
