Hello, fellow health-conscious friends... Boy, has this been a FAT day, LOL!
Today has been a day in the kitchen for me. Starting yesterday afternoon, I decided to cook up some soup stocks from stuff in the freezer, and can them so I don't worry about losing the contents of the freezer when I move. Plus, I love good homemade stocks, Yum! Well, the canning part won't happen until tomorrow I guess, as I'm pooped already. I've cooked up pounds and pounds of turkey, chicken and beef, roasted lots of beef marrow bones... and roasted root vegetables just to flavor each stock.
My method is to cook the various stocks with flavoring veggies, then strain and chill so I can remove all the rendered fat. I'd guess I have taken a couple pounds of fat off the 3 stocks I'm making. Think what that would do to our bodies if we ate all that saturated fat!
Hope y'all are having a good day... and staying warm and on the ground. The winds here are steady at least to 35-40 MPH with gusts up to 50. Fortunately, we're not having blizzard warnings like Michigan, nor tornado warnings like Ohio last night.
