Consomme Double
- 2 quarts store-bought chicken stock
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 celery stalks
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 pounds chicken backs and necks, fresh or frozen
- Fill a generous pot with the chicken stock and 1 quart water.
- Add the onion, celery, garlic, and bay leaves.
- Boil for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Put the pieces of chicken, fresh or frozen, into the stock.
- Boil vigorously for 1 hour.
- Take the pot off the stove and let the contents cool.
- Skim off any scum at the top, then strain the broth.
- (I pour it through a four-ply cheesecloth in a strainer.)
- Place the strained broth in the freezer in 6 small packets (1 1/2 cups per packet) so the entire batch does not have to be defrosted.
