Stock, chicken, ready made, retail

Ready-made retail chicken stock is a prepared liquid used as a base for soups, sauces and other cooked dishes. The label data describe a product made up mainly of water, with small amounts of protein, fat and carbohydrate. Per 100g, it provides 50 kJ of energy, 2.3g of protein, 0.2g of fat and 0.56g of salt.

Protein contributes to the maintenance and repair of body tissues, although stock provides only a small amount. Its salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, particularly when it is combined with other salty ingredients. The amount of stock used will affect its contribution to the finished dish. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
