Post your broth or stock recipes /ck/
Ramen broth is especially appreciated but any will do. Here is my basic chicken stock recipe
>roast a salted chicken at 400F degrees with two coarse chopped onions and stick of celery until done (165F)
>let cool, remove and save the meat and skin
>carcass should be about 3 lbs
>chunk up 2 carrots
>bay leaf
>a few whole peppercorns
>5 cloves garlic, peeled but not smashed, cut in half
>1 stick fresh celery
>1 fresh onion
>add all the contents (including the roasted vegetables) into a stock pot
>3 quarts water
>bring to simmer, skim foam and funk
>12 hours, add splash of water occasionally

If you're making ramen broth, consider adding some ginger to the stock pot.

>after 12 hours, remove from heat and strain stock
>finely chop chicken skin, as small as possible
>add to stock
>boil until 2 quarts are left
wa la
Scale for more, but don't add too many peppercorns.

I was getting to that. I just wanted to post a basic recipe first. Anyway, tonkotsu broth:
>3 lbs split pig trotters
>3 lbs chicken carcass
>1 large onion chopped
>24 scallions, whites only (save greens and light green for later)
>4 oz mushrooms, I leave them whole
>3 inch knob of ginger chopped
>whole head of garlic, cloves peeled and sliced not smashed
>2 leeks coarsely chopped
>remove meat and skin from chicken, freeze or save for later
>add trotters and chicken to stock pot
>cover with water and bring to boil
>remove from heat exactly when it reaches boil
>strain, wash with cold water on the pig and chicken to remove nasty bits
>fry onion, mushrooms, ginger, garlic for ~8 minutes in small amount of vegetable oil, careful not to char
>add everything back to stock pot, pork fat back on top, and cover with water
>bring to rapid boil
>turn down to simmer
>place lid on top, let it come to gentle boil/rough simmer
>after 1 hour, remove mushrooms
>after 3 more hours, remove fat back carefully and store for later
>continue simmering remnants in stock pot for ~8 more hours
>strain
>finely chop fat back and add to broth, boil until about 3 quarts left
wa la

Is this some kind of clarifying trick? After 12 hours that skin has given all it has to give.

Actually, you reserve the skin from originally roasting the chicken (I like it crispy). Save the chicken skin in a container until the broth is done, then mix it in. It blends extremely well with the broth and adds a shit load of flavor - salt, too, if you salted your chicken.
It makes the broth very rich.

Huh. Seems like you could extract more flavor and develop more gelatin if you'd included it in the first place. Skin is full of collagen.
Usually crispy roasted skin is the first part of the chicken to disappear when the bird comes out of the onion. Self control is for puritans.
And I always add salt when using stock, not when making it, because... tradition, I guess. And because I never know how much the stock is going to be reduced for the final application.
Also, feet.
I got all these drippings from pulled pork, dark because of brown sugar
what do yall suppose i do with it

The same thing you do with all flavorful fat, my good non-gendered pronoun: Fry some taters.

Yeah I just usually have chicken carcasses on hand. Maybe I should invest in some chicken feet like I do pig. And don't get me wrong, the skin is delicious, I always eat some before the meat and rest of the skin get picked off. As for keeping the skin in, it doesn't take a long time for everything to be extracted. If you did include it in the stock initially, it would be a good idea to remove it after awhile. I know it sounds odd, just a little technique I've come to enjoy that I don't see used often. The salted skin adds a very tasty richness when you are down to the strained broth. Hell, you can add it right before serving but it does need a bit of time to fully integrate with the broth.

>sugary oil
Freeze it until you find a good idea.
