5.  Use fresh ingredients as far as possible to
retain the maximum flavors, longer life for the
stock and to avoid unpleasant flavor.

reduces the grease content.

6.  The bones before used should be
blanched in hot water to remove blood
stains, to whiten them and to remove the
impurities. This is mainly done in making
of white stock.
 Chop the bones for fuller extraction of
flavor.
 Place the ingredients in cold water allow
to boil and then simmer for white stock.
 Use clean equipments to prevent food
spoilage from bacteria and dirt.

cloudy.
 Scum should be removed otherwise it will boil

20.  Court bouillon
 Court Bouillon (pronounced "coor boo-
YONE") is a flavorful, aromatic liquid used
for poaching fish and shellfish. The
simplest court bouillon consists of nothing
but salted water, and some traditional
recipes call for a mixture of half salted
water, half milk , vinegar and mirepoix
vegetables.
The court bouillon recipe uses a mix of
aromatics, spices and acid, which will give
the best results when poaching most kinds

22.  Mirepoix
 MirepoixMirepoix is a combination
of onions, carrots, celery, and sometimes other
vegetables. Often, the less desirable parts of the
vegetables that may not otherwise be eaten (such
as carrot skins and celery ends) are used. The use
of these parts is highly dependent upon the chef,
as many do not appreciate the flavours that these
portions impart.

23.  Blanching
 Done to bones for reasons like
 To remove the impurities
 To remove the blood stains
 To remove the fat content
 To whiten them.

24.  A cooking method gentler than boiling, simmering refers to
cooking food in liquid (or cooking just the liquid itself) at a
temperature slightly below the boiling point―around 180 to 190
degrees.
 It requires careful regulation of the temperature so that the
surface of the liquid shimmers with a bubble coming up every
few seconds.
 Simmering cooks food gently and slowly. Delicate foods such as
fish are poached at or below a simmer to prevent them from
breaking apart. Meats that are simmered remain moist and
fork-tender, while boiled meats are often dry and tough
because the heat of boiling liquid can cause their proteins to
toughen.
 Stocks are simmered so the fat and proteins released by any
cooking meat or bones float to the top, where they can be
skimmed off instead of being churned back in, which can make
the stock cloudy and greasy.

25.  The scum is denatured protein, mostly comprising
the same proteins that make up egg whites. It is
harmless and flavorless, but visually unappealing.
Eventually, the foam will break up into microscopic
particles and disperse into your stock, leaving it
grayish and cloudy. The more vigorously your stock
bubbles, the faster this process will occur.
 If the grayness or cloudiness bothers you but
skimming is not an option for some reason, you can
always remove the micro-particulates later through
the clarification process used to make consomme.

26.  The difference between broth and stock is one of
both cultural and colloquial terminology but certain
definitions prevail. Stock is the thin liquid produced
by simmering raw ingredients: solids are removed,
leaving a thin, highly flavoured liquid. This yields
classic stock as made from beef, veal, chicken, fish
and vegetables.
 Broth differs in that it is a basic soup where the
solid pieces of flavouring meat or fish, along with
some vegetables, remain. It is often made more
substantial by adding starches such as rice, barley
or pulses.
 Traditionally, broth contained some form of meat or
fish; however, nowadays it is acceptable to refer to a
strictly vegetable soup as a broth.

27.  Remouillage is a stock made from bones that
have already been used those used for jus lie.
The second stock is less strong and is usually
reduced to make a glace.
 Remouillage may also replace water in the
making of a stock.
