Instant Stock
Holiday 2005
The concentrated refrigerated stock in supermarkets is very good. Look for products that have chicken as the first ingredient and do not list MSG. Today there are excellent tetra-packed stocks. However, you should look for a low-salt version if you want to reduce them for sauces. This is an easy recipe to improve concentrated stocks found in supermarkets.
