Servings: 64 ounces

Ingredients

  • 1.5-2 lbs assorted Chicken bones – previously roasted or raw
  • Carrots
  • Celery
  • Onion
  • 1 Chayote Squash
  • parsnips
  • garlic cloves
  • fresh ginger root
  • 3 bay leaves
  • fresh parsley – stems and/or leaves
  • 1 tsp whole black peppercorns
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to Instant Pot. Add water up until the ‘max’ line. Set to sauté function and bring to a simmer. Use a spoon to discard any foam that rises to the surface of the water.
  • Cancel sauté function and switch to Soup mode, high pressure, for 180 minutes. Close lid, set valve to sealing and let cook.
  • One cooking time has elapsed, depressurize manually or naturally.
  • Set a fine mesh sieve overtop of a pitcher (I use my blender’s canister). Pour broth through sieve and discard everything but the liquid.
  • To store, pour broth into tempered mason jars.
  • Notes: If freezing, leave 1.5-2” of headroom at the top of each jar to prevent them from bursting. Alternatively, freeze in large, silicon ice moulds. Once broth has frozen, transfer ice cubes to a freezer-safe bag for easy storage. Repeat process until all broth has frozen.
