Chef's Sourcing & Quality Tips:

  • Produce & Aromatics: Always use fresh whole aromatics and seasonal herbs rather than dehydrated powders when possible.
  • Cooking Oils: Utilize cold-pressed oils with appropriate smoke points such as extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil.
  • Salt & Seasoning: Season from a modest height above the pan to ensure an even, uniform crystalline dispersion.

Step-by-Step Culinary Masterclass

Follow these sequential steps with careful attention to sensory cues and cooking temperatures:

Step 1: Technique & Execution

Get some chicken bones from your local butcher or save and freeze them when you de-bone chicken breasts

Step 2: Technique & Execution

Prepare a mirepoix (chopped carrots, onions or shallots, celery or celery root (preferable, also known as celeriac) and garlic) exact quantities depend on the volume of stock you are making and your own personal taste

Step 3: Technique & Execution

Sweat the mirepoix on medium head with a little oil (let the veggies cook alone for a while) If using fresh bones , add them to the mirepoix and heat them up

Step 4: Technique & Execution

Do not do this for frozen bones and meat as too much blood will be released later and cloud the stock

Step 5: Technique & Execution

When the bones are hot, add very cold water (as much as you want, depends on how much bones you have)

Step 6: Technique & Execution

Add a few peppercorns and whatever other herb and spice you like (oregano is nice) Simmer for 3-4 hours removing scum frequently
