My chicken broth always smells good but...
I find it tastes like nothing.
Have my taste buds just been ruined after 20-something years of eating can soup?
Here's what I did:
8 qt stock pot
Chicken. Onion. Carrot. Celery. Rosemary. Thyme. Garlic
Filled it up with water. Brought to a boil. Lowered to simmer. Skimmed off the scum.
I left it for several hours. Had to be over 4.
Strained out all the stuff. Set the chicken aside to shred.
Put the broth in a bowl to cool and then the fridge over night.
Took the fat off the top today.
Simmered it with carrots, celery, and chicken.
meh...
Everyone raves about homemade chicken soup but I'd rather have an envelope of Lipton's
