@sarahgavigan: Five mistakes that are making your stock worse. #1 Writing off the pressure cooker #2 Roasting every bone #3 Leaving out the chicken feet #4 Using too much water #5 Cooking it longer and calling it better Much of what you thin you know are simply wives tales. The reasoning behind each fix, with every ratio in weight and volume, is in The Definitive Guide to Making Stock & Broth Stock season is here. Save this for your next batch. Link to Guide in Bio.
Fully agree, I talk abt this all the time. Always make a clean black slate broth and build flavor off of it

i’ve started using chicken feet because of your recommendation, but it does feel like I’m cutting baby hands when I’m cutting off the nails, that is rough

I just made pressure cooker stock for the first time and I added some lemon juice and salt to my mug to taste it. It got extremely cloudy like milk which surprised me. Not a bad thing and it tasted amazing but any ideas why an acid would make it look white?

The pressure cooker broke down the bones too much and they dissolved in the stock :/

Do you reuse bones? I made a beef bone broth with some chicken bones last time. I froze all the bones again afterwards. Can I use those bones to make a second broth?

Completely disagree. I much prefer stock made from roasted bones. And I make very large batches of stock so a pressure cooker doesn’t work.

Do you do just bones or is there other veggies/aromatics in there ?

For the bones I have and the space I have I don’t have a big enough pressure cooker

Will you kindly give me an example of how you do the ratio? Bones to water!

Is there any reason to pressure cook for longer than 2 hrs? When I do it for longer I seem to get more mineral content.

honestly I think a pressure cooker with just water and a whole chicken broken down is the best option for most people. you can always season it later.

I’m down. I told people I wanted to know how to make a great stock and they laughed. Mine is okay but not really better than bought stock.

Do you allow for skimming at the beginning/prior to pressure cooking?

Mr. Dishey :
Doesn’t the pressure cooker emulsify any fat into the stock?

If I’m making on a stove, how long would you recommend I let it cook?

Does starting with a raw chicken make it more likely that the chicken is still of an edible texture when the stock is finished pressure cooking?

For those of us who don’t have a pressure cooker and want to do a stovetop method, how long would you say is needed for a bone broth? I’ve been saving all your videos lately!

If you can’t find chicken feet, bloom unflavored gelatin before adding to the recipe. I pressure can after pressure cooking for shelf stability and the gelatin just doesn’t survive those temps. Adding gelatin back in brings it back.

I will add to your advocacy for pressure cooker for stock. Watch this chrisyoungcooks YouTube vid for a great how-to/scientific discussion explainer. Pressure cooker IS the way.
