Strain broth through a fine sieve or cheesecloth. Refrigerate overnight; remove hardened fat from surface. Broth can be kept refrigerated indefinitely if brought to boil every 3 to 4 days to keep from spoiling or freeze in desired proportions.**
* When cooking chicken for broth, do not include liver as it may cause an undesirable flavor.
** Chicken stock can be frozen in ice cube trays, then stored in plastic bags for later use. To make 1 serving of gravy, use 2 cubes stock, 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon minced green onion.
