Ingredients

  • 1 turkey carcass with meat removed
  • Water

Optional Additions:

  • Onion
  • Garlic
  • Fresh Herbs
  • Dried Herbs
  • Lemon

Instructions

  • Pick as much meat off the chicken/turkey bones as you’d like. I get as much as I easily can but don’t shy away from leaving a little bit on the bones for added flavor.
  • Place bones in your pressure cooker and cover them with water.

  • Secure the lid and pressure cook on high for 2 hours, leaving the vent sealed. Allow the pressure cooker to naturally release (aka keep warm mode) until no pressure remains, about 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Use a slotted spoon to scoop out the bones and a cheesecloth to filter out the remaining fat, skin, cartilage, meat, etc.

  • Store the bone broth in sealed jars in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze. I tend to keep one jar in the refrigerator just after making the bone broth, then freeze the rest.
