At the base of any great soup is a broth and although store bought broth is convenient, a homemade broth will have more flavour and it is super easy to make!
Easy homemade chicken broth that is perfect for any soup!
Chicken broth is probably going to be your work horse broth and it is a simple to make as simmering a chicken along with some vegetables, herbs and spices. Homemade chicken broth really only requires about 5 minutes of effort to throw everything into the pot and then 5 minutes to collect the meat from the chicken at the end so there is no excuse not to make your own!
Tip: Save any leftover celery and carrot ends, herbs and parmesan rinds in the freezer for the next time that you make broth.
Tip: Chicken broth freezes well so you don't have to use it all when you make it.
Tip: Save the chicken carcass to make
