Not sure if your chicken broth is still good? This guide breaks down the exact signs chicken broth has gone bad, including smell, texture, color, and packaging issues. Plus, learn how long broth lasts in the fridge or freezer and how to safely freeze it for later.
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.
