Add a chicken carcase to your slow cooker along with some chopped vegetable pieces (trimmings will do), herbs for flavour; some salt & pepper. Cover with water and cook n �low� overnight.
This makes an excellent general stock that can be strained and transferred to the freezer when cold, for use when needed.
Exactly the same procedure can be followed for a great vegetable, fish or meat stock.
Alternatively you can choose to take the easy route � and that is making your stock by adding 2-3 stock-cubes to about 4 pints (1.89 ltr) warm water (follow stock cube manufacturer�s instructions).
Remember though not to add salt until after you have added the stock-cubes and tasted the food as the stock-cubes themselves can be very salty.
