| I think turkey stock makes a good soup.
As for the overcooked vegies, today is dump day at my house. :-)
(I never use them. Supposedly all the nutrients have been boiled out
anyway.)

| 3407.2 | turkey soup stock | CADSYS::HECTOR::RICHARDSON | | Wed Jan 08 1992 09:00 | 18 |
| I put the "soup" veggies in the compost - not much flavor left in them.
I expect you could liquify them in the blender and use them to thicken
up a "cream" soup, though. I don't think there would be anything too
odd about "chicken" soup made from turkey stock. I didn't get that
ambitious myself - put the bones out for the garbage pickup (can't
compost them; every dog in the neighborhood digs up the compost and
scatters it all over the backyard if there is any meat stuff in it -
even eggshells!). I made some of the leftover turkey into croquettes
using chicken broth instead of turkey stock, and that didn't seem odd
either (quite tasty, in fact!). Now if you used beef stock, that would
be odd...
I buy the low-salt canned chicken broth if I don't have any stock in
the freezer, which is most of the time. It's much better than the
regular kind, and bouillon cubes are inedibly salty to my crew.

| 3407.3 | good for lots of stuff | KAOFS::M_FETT | alias Mrs.Barney | Wed Jan 08 1992 11:51 | 16 |
| Perhaps I am not as picky as other folks might be, but I consider
turkey stock a pretty basic item, and have put it into a number
of dishes with good results. I've used it in soups (last weekend
I used it in my mom's recipe of "mexican soup" which has ground beef,
corn, beans onions and garlic in it; and it gave the soup a more
rich taste), sauces, (even tomato sauce!) etc.
[BTW, Charlotte; I drop all my eggshells into a big container, then
grind them in the blender; something my mom says makes great plant
food -- its a sneakier form of composting!]
And yes, I too ditch the veggies I used to make the stock....

| 3407.4 | Turkey/Chicken Stock adds flavor | PINION::MCCONNELL | | Wed Jan 08 1992 12:49 | 20 |
| Turkey stock : Just last week I took some of my turkey stock and
used it for the base of a hot and sour soup. Came out great.
Actually, you can use it anywhere you would use chicken stock. And
in the past I have also used it as the base for chicken croquettes
(or turkey croquettes), gravy too. Anywhere you want some REAL flavor.
I really doesn't have to be limited to chicken or turkey dishes either,
just as the previous writer had stated. It is good in lots of stuff.
As for the veggies, I agree with everyone else. After using them in
the stock, all the flavor and nutients are gone (into the liquid) so
mine go straight to the compost along with egg shells and any
non-meat substances. Right. Bones NEVER go in the compost nor do any
kinds of fats (I know the shells are good for the plants but I must
admit, I rarely think of adding them to my plant water as well I
should.)

| My dog loves the veggies. Just put them in a box and mail them to . .
. -:) (He'll LOVE ya) (Just make sure you don't get any bones in with
the veggies.)

| 3407.6 | Eat them, don't waste them | DEMING::JENSEN | | Mon Oct 12 1992 12:29 | 8 |
| Frankly, I don't waste the veggies. I eat them myself. I find they
still taste just like what they are. If you add them to something else
I would probably puree them with some flour for a thickener.
Remove any cloves or you will be in for some surprise. Be sure not to
freeze any as they become stronger then.
