Time: 8 hours 30 minutes
From the bones and backs left over from butchering chickens, make a delicious and rich chicken broth. Freeze portions for later use in soups and sauces. Simmer the chicken bones with carrots, celery, leeks, thyme, parsley, and spices for several hours, until they release all their flavor and aroma into the broth. Strain the finished broth and cool immediately. Use as a base for soups and sauces. Pour into containers and store in the refrigerator or freezer if you won't be using it within a few days.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place the chicken, vegetables, herbs, and spices in a 12-quart (12-liter) saucepan. Place the steamer basket directly on top of the ingredients and fill with water. Heat over high heat until bubbles begin to rise to the surface. Reduce the heat to medium to maintain a gentle simmer. Skim off any foam with a spoon or sieve every 10-15 minutes during the first hour of cooking and twice during the next two hours. Add hot water as needed to keep the bones and vegetables submerged. Simmer for 6-8 hours.
- Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into another large saucepan or heat-resistant container, discarding the rest. Chill immediately in a large portable cooler with ice or a sink filled with ice water to below 4°C (39°F). Refrigerate overnight. Skim off any solidified fat from the surface of the broth.
Exit: 4.5 l. - Ladle the broth into soup bowls, add cooked vegetables or meat and microwave.
