Progresso Chicken Cooking Stock
What it is
This is a liquid base made from chicken and vegetables, simmered to create a savory flavor. It is a convenient way to add depth and richness to various dishes without needing to make stock from scratch. The liquid is clear and light in color, ready to be incorporated into your cooking.
How people cook with it
This stock is a versatile ingredient for enhancing the taste of many home-cooked meals.
- Soups and stews
- Sauces and gravies
- Rice and grains
- Braised meats
Simply pour the desired amount of chicken cooking stock into your pot or pan. It can be used as the primary liquid for soups, stews, and chili, or as a base for pan sauces and gravies. When cooking rice, pasta, or other grains, substituting water with this stock will infuse them with a more complex flavor. It is also excellent for deglazing pans after searing meat, capturing all the flavorful browned bits. Adjust the quantity based on how much flavor you wish to impart.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike broth, which may contain more solid pieces, this cooking stock is typically a more concentrated and refined liquid. It offers a deeper chicken flavor than some broths and is intended to be a foundational element for building other tastes in a dish.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking to elevate the flavor of their everyday cooking.
How to keep the rest
After opening, refrigerate any unused portion promptly. Transfer the remaining stock to an airtight container to maintain freshness. It is best to use the opened stock within a few days for optimal flavor and quality.
