It can also be used to moisten dishes during baking or roasting, preventing them from drying out. Its liquid nature makes it easy to incorporate into marinades and braising liquids.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to chicken stock, broth is typically made with less bone and more meat, resulting in a lighter flavor and thinner consistency. It is generally seasoned, whereas stock is often unseasoned. This makes broth a convenient shortcut for quick flavor development.
