Stock

Why keep quality stock on hand?

Good stock is a cook’s shortcut to rich, savoury results. It deglazes pans, stretches drippings into glossy sauces and boosts everyday dishes — all while keeping ingredients simple and aligned with animal-based eating.

• Better browning: Add a splash to pan juices for instant gravy.
• Moisture & depth: Prevents dryness and layers flavour in slow cooks.
• Reliable seasoning: Helps balance salt and umami without fillers.

How to choose

• Beef vs chicken: Beef for robust red-meat sauces; chicken for lighter dishes and everyday use.
• Format: Liquid for maximum richness; concentrates and powders for space-saving convenience.
• Ingredients: Look for short labels — stock, salt and spices — and avoid seed oils and added sugars.
• Salt level: Unsalted/low-salt gives you more control; seasoned options are weeknight fast.

Simple ways to use stock

• Pan sauces: Deglaze steak or chop pans, reduce, then finish with butter or tallow.
• Slow cooks: Add to roasts and braises to keep meat juicy.
• Everyday cooking: Steam or reheat meats gently; thin broths for sipping to taste.
