Chicken Broth

Chicken broth is a clear, flavorful liquid made from simmering chicken parts (bones, meat, and vegetables) in water. It is a cornerstone ingredient used for soups, sauces, and stews, known for its rich flavor and versatility. Chicken broth offers a balance of flavors and nutritional benefits, contributing to the overall taste and texture of dishes. Broth is frequently used as a base for soups, stocks, and sauces. The nutritional content of homemade broth varies depending on the specific ingredients and methods used, but it's typically low in calories and fat. Broth is also sometimes used as a poaching liquid for chicken, fish, and vegetables, or as a braising liquid for meats, offering a richer, more nuanced flavor profile to the dish.
