Will strain & discard the veggies & bay leaves,then when cold,will remove most of the fat,& freeze in portions I use for making soup.The meat will be used for today's dinner.You can get good broth using cooked or raw meat.So handy & such good flavor.
I haven't made soup much this summer ... and will soon be back into regular brews of it in my crockpot. Love the aroma in my home all day as it cooks! And the convenience of frozen batches for later use, too.
