We buy a lot of rotisserie chickens and almost always take the meat off then simmer the rest for broth.  It is so good because there is enough meat left on the bones, the skin and the broth gelled in the bottom of the bag to make it rich.

 

Add a carrot, pepper corns and onion too makes it better

 

We put it in the fridge and take the fat off the top before we freeze it. We try to do it Saturday or Sunday because trash day is Monday!

@Sooner 

Yes, I do the same thing, but I also add the skin ( trying not to gobble it tho ) and remove fat on the top. 

 

Makes a darn good stock and sometimes, I will make soup  then and there and not freeze it ( minus the fat ).

I love salt, but some stock really does have too much salt, even for me.

Thank you to everyone that offered help.  I'm gonna try the tumeric thing.  I saw a video of how to make your own soup and I want to keep it simple.

 

Again...thank you to all.
