As much as I like french chicken stock, my favorite is middle eastern stock consisting of raw chicken, water, an onion, mastic pods, cardamon pods, Laurier leaves, pepper corn and some salt. The smell of the stock is divine. Lately I have learned to make the Chinese chicken stock which is also becoming a favorites. It is so simple. You just add to the water and chicken some raw ginger, some diced onions, some lime leaves and voila. So easy and so so good.
Have a great week-end.
Middle Eastern stock and Chinese stock…both sound aromatic and wonderful! Can’t wait to try them, thank you Karine!
So it seems you’re not the only one talking stocks this week…
