Ingredients

INSTRUCTIONS

Make the Rice: In a rice cooker, add 2 cups of washed, long-grain white rice and water. Set to white rice setting and allow to cook until done.

Make the Bone Broth or Regular Stock or Broth: In an 8-quart pot, fill it with water leaving the room from the top for the displacement of water when you add the turkey carcass, bring the water and carcass to boil, and then reduce to a simmer and cover.

If you are making bone broth, you will need to cook it for 10-12 hours. If you are making just a regular stock, you can boil for 6-8 hours.
