It's only 10 extra calories. Am I reading that right? I wouldn't be too concerned about a difference of 10 calories.

I like to buy whole chickens (from time to time). I boil them as per directions (about an hour). Then I add the gizzards to the water after removing the chicken. After the chicken has cooled a bit I de-bone it. The bones, skin and fat are put back in the pot and boil it for another half hour or so.

Toss in some garlic and onion and other spices you like for extra flavor.

Cool the water, and filter out the bones and stuff.

Cool the water overnight in the fridge; remove as much fat as you desire.

Now you have some chicken broth that YOU have controlled the amount of salt in it! And you have some chicken meat that you can use to make a wide variety of things.

Pepperman, I like your chicken stock....
Needtoreboot, unbelieveable to go from 70 mg to 570 mg of sodium....wow, what a difference...now days have to watch everything from cal to sodium and all those ingredients....stay healthy all.....

i usually use vegetable broth was just reading it at it has the same as the low sodium swanson 100% fat free no msg both have 15 calories and 570 mg sodium id rather have the calories or the fat then the sodium but both theses products have 0 calories from fat

if low sodium products have 570 mg of sodium how much sodium is in regular broth because 570 is too much

government has to spread out bulk of toxic. instead of cost of land field n all cost that that details.Companys get rid of toxic in foods that cost the less to add to mix/food. I'm soo praying that government follows throught of making food companys from putting trans fat in food/sweets...
Trans fat has no benefit to body but it will cause 20.000 + people to die from heart attack/ heart illness ( clug pipes) yrly.
All true islandors say that Just put salt n/r grease n/r sugar on anytype of foods, lol, yep americans will eat it.
On 2 islands I had 2 g=food vendors say that American would eat ship if it's fried n has salt on/in it.
will anywho. For all recipes... I do not add nor sprink with salt.
If recipe needs milk I use 1/2 water n milk, r just water.
box cake mix seem to need butter/oil in batter. use no more than 2 to 3 table spoons of olive oil.
Will Dear toss salt out n stop using it.

Beesley, I agree - it is only 10 calories. I see other foods where the difference is much more radical and the 'healthier' version is higher in fat or sugar than the 'regular' version.

Pepperman, I like your stock process! I do try to make my own stock when time allows. Our schedules can get a bit wonky so planning cooking can be tricky sometimes. Prepackaged stock really helps getting a quick meal prepared.

I know this isn't a huge deal calorie wise. It certainly is sodium-wise though.
