Chicken Stock

[cassa333]

Hi,

I started to make some chicken stock.

I roasted the bones and then added water etc and put it in the slow cooker to finish off but I forgot all about it. It has been going for a couple of days now.

Should I chuck it out or will it be OK?

Thanks

Lol

roasted or boiled the bones. Are there any bones or water/stock left.
If there is stil a load of warm cooked liquid I would use it. No worries

As the Bobby said: if there is still liquid there, it's OK. Two days? I don't even like leaving the slow-cooker on when I'm out of the house. Any way, it's fine but i bet quite concentrated...Maybe add a little more water.

Sounds delicious. Cut it up into cubes and keep on the shelf until needed.

Bone broth is made by slow cooking bones for up to several days. It will be fine...and probably very good for you.

There was a question on "The kitchen cabinet" on Radio 4 or 4extra this am to do with making stock from bones - I was only half listening to it but I think that the consensus was that very little nutrition could be obtained from bones so best to cook for a short time only, to extract what flavour you could - then bin them! I speak as one who always intends to make full use of poultry carcasses by adding pulses etc to the water but, in reality, I can't be bothered with it and now I feel vindicated - Yeah! Result.
