Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in your instant pot.
- Lock the lid in its place and turn the steam release to SEALING position. Press MANUAL button and adjust the time to 40 minutes.
- When the cooking is finished, leave the pressure drop naturally before opening (or wait 20 minutes before releasing it manually).
- Let it cool down before pouring into jars (use a mesh sieve to get clear stock).
Notes
- This recipe was made in a 6-quart/6-liter Instant Pot.
- The cooking time does not include time that is needed for the pot to come to the pressure and release its pressure.
- Raw carcasses, feet and bones make the best stock but you can also use bones and carcasses from roasted chicken. Just note the stock will be lighter in flavor.
- Chicken feet and a squeeze of lemon (or vinegar) help the stock to achieve the gel-like texture once it is chilled.
- Make sure to keep the water amount under the MAX line of the inner pot.
- Storage – store in the fridge (up to 3 days) or in your freezer.
