Mori: since I wasn’t going to be much good for anything else today, I decided to make bone broth, since it takes a gazillion hours and requires nothing but you sitting to make sure it don’t catch fire. You just take your bones and various veggie odds’n’ends (I had about a chicken and a half worth of bones, plus carrot stubs, a onion, garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns), pour water over ‘em, and simmer for a million years. I been simmering that shit for going on seven hours now; the recipe I got said up to twelve but no way can I stay up to 2AM for that.

It’s still pretty weak, but it’s all my body wants and I swear this is the most delicious shit I done ever put in my mouth. My body is ENTHUSIASTIC about it, and it been enthusiastic about jack fucking shit today.

I AM NEVER NOT MAKING BONE BROTH EVER AGAIN.

If you have a rice cooker, or a slow cooker, you can leave it and it won't burn.

Yay bone broth!

Chicken stock is the best! Though (now having freezer space), I tend to freeze chicken carcasses until I have three or four and then make a big batch (and then freeze it).

One day I should learn how to make other stocks, e.g. with beef bones. The closest I've gotten to that is cooking oxtail soup (which is a) incredibly delicious and b) has all of that unctuousness of a bone broth as the marrow comes out of the tail bones).
