Please note that this product will no longer be classified as JAS Organic. Rest assured that the product itself remains unchanged and continues to be produced to the highest organic standards with full organic certification in New Zealand. Organic chicken meat tends to have red or brown coloring around the bones even after cooking. This is not blood, rather it is proteins called myoglobin and hemoglobin which are predominantly found in healthy free-range chicken that exercise and move a lot. There are no safety or quality concerns. Brining the chicken 24h prior to cooking in a salt solution helps reduce the visual impact.

Add vegetables like celery, onion, carrots and parsley. Cover with water. Add sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Bring to a boil and immediately reduce heat to bring the stock to a simmer. Simmer partially covered for 1.5-2 hours, occasionally skimming off any foam that comes to the surface. The longer you let it simmer the more concentrated the stock will be. Remove the bones and vegetables and strain the stock through a fine mesh sieve. Store in glass jars and fill only to 80% to leave space for the liquid to expand in case you are freezing it. Homemade chicken stock is good for 4 days in the fridge and 1 year in the freezer. We've managed to store more than 1 liter of concentrated organic chicken soup after simmering for 4 hours. That is a lot!
