They are small, but I include the breast in the stock since it’s too dry to use for anything else). Vegetables and aromatics = $4 (we don’t need as many veggies since we are aren’t roasting the chicken) Total $20 ($1.25/cup) 15 minutes to get stuff in the pot 5 hours - bring to a boil and simmer 2 hours to reduce 30 min to strain and degrease 15 min to wash dishes 1 active hour (4 min/cup), 8 total (30 min per cup) Store bought: $7 for 3 cups ($2.30/cup) Support my channel https://www.patreon.com/helenrennie My cooking classes in the Boston area: http://www.helenrennie.com FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/HelensKitchenCooking/ INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/helen.rennie
