Turkey broth

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 10 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to cook turkey broth? You can use any part of the turkey for cooking, but it is best to use the bone part. Namely, boiled on the bones, the broth turns out to be richer. I use the shoulder part of the wing. It is similar to a chicken drumstick, only several times larger. Rinse the selected part of the turkey in running water. Peel the onions and carrots and rinse in running water to remove dirt.

2. STEP 2

   

   To cook, take a comfortable, deep saucepan and place the peeled onions and carrots in it. There is no need to cut them. They will soften when cooked. Add bay leaves and allspice to the pan.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add turkey.

4. STEP 4

   

   Fill everything with water so that the meat is completely covered. Place the pan on the fire and bring to a boil. During the heating process, foam will form, which will need to be removed. We won't need it. After boiling, cover the pan with a lid and turn the heat to low. Leave the broth to simmer over low heat for 1-1.5 hours (depending on the hardness of the meat).

5. STEP 5

   

   About 10 minutes before the end of cooking, add a little salt and spices to the pan to your taste. The finished broth must be strained through a fine strainer or several layers of gauze, removing the meat and vegetables. This will make the broth clear.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour the prepared broth into serving bowls and serve. You can add boiled turkey meat and boiled eggs to the broth. Sprinkle the broth with fresh herbs. Bon appetit!

I had a frozen turkey thigh bone with a small amount of meat, and I decided to cook broth on it. It turned out to be easy to do this. In addition to these ingredients, I also added stems from dill, parsley and cilantro. Cooked the broth for about 1.5 hours. I strained the finished broth through a cotton cloth. The turkey broth turned out to be a beautiful golden color, tasty and rich. I made a simple soup from it, adding potatoes and spiral pasta. The soup turned out light but satisfying. The whole family had a great time eating it. Julia, thank you very much for the wonderful recipe!

I cooked turkey broth as a base for the soup. But in itself it is very good! Especially with pies or crackers. For cooking, I took a small turkey drumstick, defrosted it and washed it. I put it in the pan along with the onion and carrots. When the water boiled, I skimmed off the foam. After that I added bay leaf and allspice. The broth was cooked on the lowest heat, literally simmering for 1.5 hours. During this time, the fat from the shin came out forming beautiful golden beads. Onions and carrots gave off their taste and color. The spices also enriched the broth with aroma and pleasant taste. The broth has become transparent! To be sure, I strained it through a fine strainer into a clean pan. Turkey broth is delicious, rich and aromatic!

I tried to cook broth from three turkey hangers. By weight it is ~650 g. Medium onion and carrot. Cooked for 1.5 hours. Immediately carefully skim off the foam and cook over low heat. The broth turned out to be completely transparent and very rich and tasty. I didn't even bother to fill it up. I remembered about the photo when I had already eaten it. Thanks for the wonderful recipe!
