Fall Turkey Broth is homemade and brings strong turkey flavor to any soup or turkey gravy. It is also good to use during Thanksgiving for gravy, soups or when making grain-free free stuffing. Any time of year is a good time to make Turkey Broth. Most notably, homemade Fall Turkey Broth is wonderful to have on hand in your pantry.
Incredibly most people who are looking to heal their gut are going grain-free and refined sugar-free. To tell the truth, following this diet is what led to my starting this blog. Friends who saw pictures of my food thought I should share my recipes. They thought there would be others who would be interested to know that they were not destined to eat bland and boring food. Indeed I myself could not maintain this diet if I could not also have decadent and tasty food.
While making broth is super easy it is time consuming and requires several hours to develop and deep flavor. Since this is a small batch there is no need to process in a canner. However, it will last longer if you store it in your freezer vs your refrigerator. Indeed it is a treat to use to make homemade soup during the fall.
Notes:
My family is glad that my health is returning. They really enjoy that I have the energy to cook and bake again. No one can taste any difference in the way I cook and often ask if I am sure I didn’t use any grains or other items that I am not supposed to eat. I used this recipe at Thanksgiving time but forgot to post it. It is nice to have on hand for making gravies, soups or other items. Plus it is easy to make. This is a small batch and can be stored either in the fridge or in the freezer for up to two months.
Normally around Thanksgiving time, the grocery stores in the USA will sell parts of the turkey for those who are making dinner for one or two people. The turkey pieces will often be on sale. It is a good time to purchase and store in your freezer for when you want some turkey broth. This recipe does take a little time to make as you want to create a deep turkey flavor and that is done by cooking low and slow for 2 hours.
