-====== White Chicken Stock ====== 
- 
-===== Ingredients ===== 
- 
-  * 6 lb chicken bones (backs and necks) 
-  * cold water 
-  * 3 ribs celery 
-  * 3 carrots 
-  * 3 onions 
-  * 2 leeks 
-  * 2 tsp whole, black peppercorns 
-  * 2 bay leaves 
-  * 10 to 12 stems fresh parsley 
-  * 3 to 4 stems fresh thyme 
- 
-===== Instructions ===== 
- 
-  - To start the stock, rinse the bones under cold water and place them into a suitable-sized stock pot. 
-  - Cover the bones with cold water by about 2 inches.  
-  - Turn the heat to medium and slowly bring the bones to a simmer, making sure it doesn’t come to a boil. 
-  - Chop the mirepoix (onions, leeks, celery and carrots) into about 1/2" to 3/4" -inch pieces. 
-  - Simmer for about 30 minutes. 
-  - Remove the chicken into a strainer, discard the water and rinse the chicken. This will discard the coagulated proteins that form from raw chicken. 
-  - Return the chicken to the pot with the mirepoix and cover with cold water by about 2 inches.  
-  - Let the stock gently simmer for another hour or so, skimming the surface as needed. 
-  - Then add the bouquet garni (peppercorns, bay leaves, parsley stems and fresh thyme), making sure to gently tuck it underneath the surface. Continue to simmer for about 30 minutes. 
-  - Simmer for at least 1 1/2 to 2 hours 
-  - Skim off as much fat as possible from the surface.  
-  - Gently remove the solids and discard.  
-  - Strain the stock through a sieve lined with a piece of cheesecloth. 
-  - Cool it over an ice bath.
