ORIGINAL: LanceHughes Y'know the best way to make sure your chicken stock is low-sodium, don't you? Make it yourself. I'm looking at a can right now. 1 cube = 46%, so double the 1 cup of water to make 32% Almost every can is at 40% per serving "Less sodium" is 1/3 off that, so 24% per serving. OOPS! We were asked to not go to "health" issues. Sorry..... Make your own broth the easy way - 4 chicken breasts in crock pot. Coarsely chop celery, carrot, onion, bell pepper, black pepper, mustard seeds, celery seed, maybe hot peppers if you like. (Lance's secret spice - but won't "work" with hot peppers - nutmeg!) Water to cover. Cook until mush... LOL! Strain and freeze in ice cube trays. Turn 'em out into freezer bags. I use a bit of allspice, which is commonly encountered in the cuisine of the Yucatan and is, in fact, native to that region of Mexico. Sometimes a bit of Canela (true cinnamon, not the Cassia often labeled as cinnamon by McCormick and the like).
