Making a homemade turkey stock is a rewarding way to ensure nothing goes to waste after a festive roast. This dairy-free recipe transforms a leftover carcass and simple root vegetables into a rich, golden liquid that serves as a superior base for soups, stews and risottos. By gently simmering the bones with aromatics like thyme and bay, you extract a deep, savoury depth that shop-bought cubes simply cannot replicate.
This versatile stock is an essential component for a healthy, flavourful kitchen, providing a nutritious foundation for your favourite post-holiday meals. Once prepared, it can be used immediately for a comforting turkey and vegetable soup or frozen in portions for future use. It is a simple, traditional method that makes the most of your ingredients while adding a professional touch to your home cooking.
