Don't throw away the turkey bones after you've demolished your bird! Save them to make a fantastic turkey stock, which you can then use to flavor all sorts of soups and gravies. After you strain the stock you can freeze it in small Tupperware tubs, or even in ice cube trays, very handy to have in the kitchen!

1 pot of stock (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 turkey carcass, practically picked clean
2 bay leaves
2 onions, peeled and quartered
2 carrots
1 sprig thyme

Directions

1
Toss everything into a large stock pot.
2
Add enough water to cover.
3
Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer.
4
Simmer for 1 hour.
5
Strain.

You've motivated me! I've been hording a turkey carcass in my freezer since Christmas. Today I threw the entire thing in its frozen state into the stock pot and fired it up. There's a pleasurable feeling in knowing I have homemade stock ready and waiting. James Brown really said it best, "I FEEL GOOD!"

What a $$ saver this is! I have used the turkey carcass in the past-but never thought to save the carcass as broth! I buy spices in bulk so I used 2 TBSp onion powder and dehydrated carrots. After this cooled, I skimmed the fat from the surface. I measured out 14 oz. per freezer bag (the avg. can size that recipes call for) and now have 9 bags of golden glory in the freezer. I will sub. this for recipes that call for chicken broth. Chicken/Turkey-the same to me. Thank You!!!

This is just like I like to make mine. I hate to throw anything out. The only difference is I like to add a potato, and a few sprigs of fresh parsley from the garden, and a pinch of freshly ground sage. Wonderful, Mirj!

Mirj, a good recipe for turkey stock. I did leave a little more meat on the carcass than you suggested, but everything else was the same. The vegetables give the stock another depth which will be wonderful in the soup. Thanks for giving us this wonderful recipe.
