3 servings Prep: 15 mins(plus cooling) Cook: 5 hrs 30 mins
Ingredients
- 1 roasted turkey carcass, broken into pieces, plus the reserved neck, giblets and any leftover skin
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 ribs celery, chopped
- 1 onion, unpeeled and quartered
- 10 cloves garlic, smashed and unpeeled
- A handful of thyme and parsley sprigs
- 2 teaspoons whole peppercorns
Directions
- Divide the ingredients between two large pots (or place all of the ingredients in a large stockpot). Fill each pot with enough water to cover the ingredients (about 4 quarts per pot) and bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat and simmer until reduced by one-fifth, about 4 1/2 hours. Let cool for at least 2 hours.
- Strain the stock through a colander set inside an extra-large bowl; skim and discard any fat from the surface.
- Rinse out a pot, then pour in the stock. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until reduced by half, about 50 minutes.
- Refrigerate the stock, then skim and discard any solidified fat. Makes about three quarts.
