Chicken Stock
Homemade chicken stock is the liquid base of hundreds of Mexican dishes. It is made by simmering chicken with onion, garlic, celery, carrots, and herbs for several hours. It is essential for Mexican red rice, tamales, sopa de lima, and white pozole. Good stock makes a noticeable difference to the depth of flavour.
