We've put together the chicken parts we like for making a rich, deeply flavored homemade stock or bone broth in one convenient package.
Each kit combines meaty chicken bones with Chicken Feet. The bones provide plenty of traditional chicken flavor, while the feet are naturally rich in connective tissue that produces a beautifully gelatinous broth when simmered slowly.
Our heritage breed chickens are raised outdoors on pasture and moved to fresh grass twice every day, where they forage naturally through grasses, clover, bugs and other plants and insects.
They're supplemented with a nutritionally balanced organic feed made without corn or soy and raised without antibiotics, hormones or vaccines.
Place the contents of the kit in a stockpot or slow cooker and cover with water. Add vegetables, herbs and a splash of apple cider vinegar if desired.
Bring gently to a simmer, skim if necessary, and cook low and slow until the broth is rich and flavorful. Strain, cool and refrigerate. A well-made batch may become beautifully gelatinous when chilled.
Use it for soups, sauces, gravies, cooking grains or simply as a warm savory broth.
