In the store you can buy any offal for making soups or broths, but as for healthy and dietary chicken broth, not all parts of the carcass are suitable for its preparation.

We'll tell you what secrets this simple dish has.

Much depends on the purpose for which the broth is being prepared – for soup, as a base for a sauce, or for consumption in its pure form.

For sauces and soups

In this case, it is recommended to either purchase a broth kit or cook it from the wings and other bony parts of the chicken body with a small amount of meat.

You can use this broth to make a dietary vegetable soup or sauce, but not a full-fledged, nutritious, and rich broth.

The broth is full-fledged

To have something to satisfy hunger and replenish lost strength and energy, you need to boil the drumsticks and thighs. There is enough meat here and there is a bone. You can also use the back - this is the fattest part.

In this case, it is better to use chicken breast, which is the least fatty of all parts of the chicken body and is considered dietary.

You won't get a rich broth, but if you want, you can add the same back in equal proportions.
