Skim the Fat From Chicken Noodle Soup

Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Karen for Expert Village the vegetables that we took out of the soup has settles a little. Now they have some broth on the bottom so I'm going to put it back through the colander also so we get as much of the delicious broth that we made, we don't want to waist anything. So just scoop that into the colander and you can see there's quit a bit of juices in there and we want to take advantage of all of that. And you'll just scoop it all into the pot it's a lot and then squeeze it and let that set a while to drip and to make sure you get all of our stock. Now notice that this broth that's been sitting here the fat is starting to float to the top of the container we'll place these into the refrigerator to chill and that layer of fat will harden and it will be very easy to remove the fat. Now if your in a rush and you don't want to wait until the broth cools and the fat hardens you can take a shallow spoon like this and skim that fat off. But it's much more efficient if you spend the time to put it in the refrigerator and wait for it to harden."
