Chicken stock/soup different recipes/processing times?
Comments (17)For anyone reading this in the future, I finally did contact Dr. Andress and there really isn't supposed to be any meat left on the carcass when you start, they rewrote the instructions for So Easy to Preserve but she says they might clarify a little more on the website that this is a STOCK not a soup, that's why I kept putting "stock" in quotes b/c to me a stock doesn't have meat. Here's her reply "Here is how we re-worded it for our University of Georgia So Easy to Preserve book, below, although it's not a lot more specific. And I might now choose to say "Place large carcass bones (with as much meat removed as you can)": Or the other option is to not allow picking of the carcass at all. The directions really only allow for adding back the bits still clinging to the bones after cooling, not the all the meat stripped from the bones. So that's how we tried to word the order of actions for our book. But we can consider rewording on the website from the USDA guidelines, also. Thank you for pointing this out. Chicken Stock (Broth) Hot pack-- Place large carcass bones (with most of meat removed) in a large stockpot. Add enough water to cover bones. Cover pot and simmer until meat can easily be stripped from bones, about 30 to 45 minutes. Remove bones. Cool broth; skim off and discard fat. Remove the bits of meat clinging to bones and add to broth, if desired. Reheat broth to boiling. Fill hot jars, leaving 1-inch headspace. Wipe jar rims. Adjust lids and process. CAUTION: Do not add additional meat to this product. Process in a Dial Gauge Pressure Canner......(etc.)" Since how much meat is left on the carcass can vary, I think it's best not to put any meat back into the broth for canning, though I suggest that straining to get any bits floating might not be necessary. I also wouldn't add anything left at the bottom of the stockpot to the jars (sometimes I get little bits of bone as well as meat at the bottom of the stock). I knew what stock meant to a chef, couldn't figure out why NCHFP website was saying to add meat back into the broth, this was from very old procedures and it turns out stock really means stock. Maybe this is clear to someone who's been canning for a long time, but I haven't had any training (beyond NCHFP course, reading, and what I've picked up on this forum) so when I read that you could have meat in the jars my first question was "how much" - answer turns out to be "really nothing".

Comments (17)Hi! My router was goofed up the past couple days at the pole...just got back online this afternoon! I fry the ancho in a screaming hot SS skillet just a couple seconds until it slightly scorches. Be careful...they can put off fumes that can burn your eyes. The frying intensifies the flavor...it's noticeably in the finished product. Same technique as for making mole. Lindac, I make bean soup similar to yours also but I make several different types. We get bored with the same bean soup all winter. The tomatillos are 14 ounce cans. Yes, it was a lot of shredded pork. I had it leftover so I used it up in the soup. Beverly, I think dried ground ancho or poblano would be fine. Even jalapeno would work...it just for a bit of heat without overpowering the soup. AM, Yes...Norwich is only about 20 minutes (10 miles) from us! Call next time, please!! I don't usually jot down ingredients when I make soup. I'm glad I did this time...it's good! /tricia...See MoreI'm looking for something yummy to do with hamburger
Comments (11)Chinese Hamburger (over rice): Brown whatever hamburger meat you have with a diced onion. Add one (two around here) cans of green/yellow beans (water and all) Add one can of either baby corns, or if you like water chestnuts, or anything else that takes your fancy! Add a couple of tablespoons of soya sauce (you can use light soya too) couple of tablespoons of brown sugar, couple of tablespoons of vinegar tsp garlic powder or 2 cloves mashed garlic crushed chili peppers flakes to personal taste You can thicken the sauce a little with cornstarch and water, or rice starch and water, but don't do it with flour.. seems too thick that way. Simmer 20 mins or so or until rice is cooked. Pour meat over rice, cheap, cheerful, and simple!...See MoreLOOKING for: Need a gourmet slow cooker recipe
Comments (22)I've posted this one many times before but it sticks in my memory because it was offered at a dinner party by a very busy lady, head of a university department, who came home after work to prepare this dish for her guests. We were all so impressed that she managed to make something tasting so good without working at it all day. She had made mimeographed copies of the recipe beforehand as she said everyone asked for it when she served this dish. This was before the days of photocopiers ! LOL. This was a simple but prize winning recipe in a cross country cooking contest sponsored by a Canadian womens' magazine in the 1960s. Tastes better if made one day ahead. 1 kilo of veal shoulder steak, cut into small bite-size pieces 2 medium onions, sliced 1 cup water 1/2 cup ketchup or tomato sauce 3 cloves garlic, chopped 1 teasp salt 1/2 teasp pepper 1 1/2 cups cashews (rinse if they are salted) 2 TBS butter Worcestershire sauce 1). Grind garlic, salt and pepper together in mortar and pestle. 2). Roll veal pieces in this mixture in the mortar and then on a clean plate, being sure pieces are well coated. 3). Brown veal in butter in a saucepan. When brown, add onions, water, tomato sauce and cashews. 4). Simmer slowly until meat and nuts are both tender. About 40 minutes. It may need a bit of water added. 5). Thicken with a bit of flour and a few drops of Worcestershire sauce. 6). Best served the next day. Goes well with rice and a crisp green salad.
