Brodo



The latest food craze that I've heard about is Brodo, which is simply "broth" in Italian.  Apparently people are discovering the wonderful goodness that is homemade chicken, beef or vegetable broth.  Well, I for one, have been making Brodo for at least 30 years, nothing new to me.  The frugality of using leftover chicken carcass or beef bones when on sale appeals to me in a great way.  And homemade broths make the best soups, stews, etc.
