can you buy chicken stock in the grocery store?

Question

Seems like it's all chicken broth, not stock.

Answer 1

Yes! You can find it in the SOUP isle.

Several terms are sometimes confused when referring to chicken soup or chicken soups. The following is an attempt to clarify the terminology:

* Chicken Stock is a liquid in which chicken and vegetables have been boiled for the purpose of serving as an ingredient in more complex dishes. Chicken stock is not usually served as is. Stock can be made with less palatable parts of the chicken, such as feet, necks or bones: the higher bone content in these parts contributes more gelatin to the liquid, making it a better base for sauces. Stock can be reboiled and reused as the basis for a new stock.

* Chicken Broth is the liquid part of chicken soup. Broth can be served as is, or used as stock, or served as soup with noodles. Broth can be milder than stock, does not need to be boiled as long, and can be made with meatier chicken parts.

* Chicken Bouillon or Bouillon de Poule is basically French for chicken broth. Bouillon cubes are often used nowadays instead of specially prepared chicken stock.

* Chicken Consommé is a more refined chicken broth. It is usually strained to perfect clarity, and reduced so as to give a concentrated essence of the broth flavor.

* While any soup in which chicken has been boiled or with a chicken stock base is, strictly speaking, a chicken soup, the term Chicken Soup, unless qualified, implies that the soup is served as a thin broth with pieces of meat, vegetables or noodles.

Answer 3

The chicken "broth" found in the grocery stores in the resealable cartons is similar enough to real chicken stock that you can use it interchangeable. Check out the brands at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods if you want particularly good ones.

Answer 4

Susan: before you write your cookbook double check your sources for accuracy , the one you quoted is wrong.
Bones do not contribute to the gelatinous quality of a stock; Cartilage contributes to the gelatinous quality of a stock due to the break down of the elastin and collagen proteins of which cartilage and connective tissues are made of.
Young animals have a higher percentage of cartilage than mature animal and it is one way to determine where a lamb ends and a sheep begins.
This is also why demi-glace recipes call for roasted veal joints not cow bones. Joints naturally have more cartilage than regular bones and young animals have more cartilage than mature animals,
Consomme is made clear by creating a protein raft which is used to clarify the stock, not by repetitive straining through a fine chinois
As far a chicken stock goes make it and then reduce it by 80% until its a glace, Pour into ice cube trays. Use as needed.

Answer 8

Chicken broth is very similar, stock is just a more concentrated form. Swanson brand makes concentrated chicken broth, which will suffice for stock, at any general supermarket. I use it often & you can't tell the difference. Just make sure that it's concentrated.

Both are good for you, each fruit/vegetable has different vitamins. Thus as more variety, as better. Vegetables have generally less sugar than fruits.
