Default speaking of soup......

i am currently in the midsst of making turkey broth, DH deboned and roasted
turkey rolls for me, we both love turkey so in the turkey seaason i try and
get at least six so i can roast or cook one every two months, first night
we ate the legs, put carcass and wings in to simmer then transferred it to
the slow cooker. am now straining and chilling in batches to remove the
fat, i have one particular vision wear pot that is a perfect pot for getting
the fat to the top to skim, when i have seperated the fat it will get
recombined and reduced down by a fourth or so, then portioned and frozen. i
love turkey soup with noodles but i love turkey soup with brown rice even
more.
