    Two things I've learned from making stock on a large scale: you won't need to skim scum off if you blanch or roast (roasting is much better in my opinion for flavour reasons) the bones ahead. Second, this whole process is much easier when using a slow cooker/crock pot. Set it and forget it, and let it go for a whole day if you want.

    I use a large stainless steel lined Sous Vide Supreme, fill it to the brim, set the temp to 194ยฐ, and let it slowly cook for 24-36 hours. I use chicken feet/paws (about 5 pounds) plus all the veg. The result is gorgeous chicken 'jello'! TONS of collagen that makes it thick and rich!

    I understand she's being professional and making another food for other people. Im making this for myself. Im cooking all this in a slow cooker for 24 hours until the bones are brittle. When I cool this, it should jiggle like gelatin. If it doesn't, I reduce it in a pot by about half. When frozen, it should bulge up as the ice crystals expand inside the gelatin.
