Stock, and Clear Soups
Ingredients
Directions
In a pot, combine water, meat, bone, and coarse sea salt.
Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to maintain a temperature between 170°F to 180°F (77°C to 82°C).
Pour the broth into china or enamelled basins and let it cool.
Remove all fat from the surface.
Store the broth in a cool place, similar to how milk is stored.
Boil the broth daily to ensure safety before using it for soup.
