Default Re: Whole Chicken

Thanks Tina! I was wondering because the first batch I saved (per the instructions from hillbillyhousewife) while making my chicken and dumplings stayed like stock. It didn't gel up. Glad to know that it's still good.

HalMd,
I've just been filling up the pot with enough water to cover the chicken as it cooks. It ends up making lots of stock. I think I ended up with almost 2 qts. last time. I saved it because I have a recipe that calls for 7 cups of chicken broth. I figure that I'll use that instead of paying the money for the cans, and I bet it will taste better, too.
