Equipment

  • Silicone ice cube trays
  • Airtight container or freezer bag (plastic or reusable)

Ingredients

  • 32 ounces chicken broth homemade or store-bought

Instructions

  • Allow homemade chicken broth to come to room temperature if needed. Evenly distribute the broth into ice cube trays (we like to use silicone for easy removal).
  • Place the ice cube trays on a steady surface in the freezer and freeze until solid, about 12 hours.
  • Label a plastic bag or airtight container with the name and date. Remove the chicken broth cubes and transfer them to the prepared container/bag. Store in the freezer for up to 6 months.
  • You can use frozen chicken broth cubes directly from frozen but may depend on the recipe. Thaw overnight in a bowl or glass jar if needed.
