- 3ltrs water
How to cook
1 Turn your cooker to P05 "Sauté".
2 Add the vegetables, herbs, spices, and cook for 3-4 mins while stirring.
3 Add the chicken wings.
4 Add water, and place the lid on the cooker.
5 Turn the cooker to P10 "Broth".
6 When the cooker finishes cooking, allow the stock to cool for a
while - do not use the "quick release" method to release pressure.
7 When stock has cooled, pass the stock through a fine strainer and
store in a tall container.
8 Allow the fat to rise as the stock cools, and skim the top fat using
a small ladle. Discard this top fat and reserve the stock for later use.
Tip: for a cleaner stock, pass the stock through a muslin, cheese cloth
or a fine tea towel, rather than a strainer.
