Asian Spice Stock
Makes 1 gallon
1 Fantasma's Finest Smoked Turkey Carcass
6-8 star anise
2-3 cinnamon sticks
1/2 teaspoon fennel
1 teaspoon tri-color peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1-inch knob ginger, sliced
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2-3 green onions, sliced into 1-inch pieces
1 handful parsley
Place the carcass in a stockpot and fill with enough water to submerge the carcass. Add all ingredients and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and allow the broth to simmer for several hours. Allow broth to cool, skim white fat and use broth in a recipe, or portion into freezer containers for later use.
