Galician Chicken Carcass: The Secret of Collagen Broth
The Galician Chicken Carcass is much more than a byproduct; it is a nutritional treasure and the soul of traditional cooking. It comes from the same high-quality chickens, ensuring that your broth, stock, or consommé has a deep, clean, and authentic flavor.
Quality Guarantee: Bone Broth, Collagen, and Joints
Slow cooking of the bones and cartilage is what turns the carcass into a superfood, especially valued for its high content of natural collagen.
- For Strong Joints: As an athlete, the collagen and gelatin released during cooking are essential to protect and nourish cartilage and ligaments, helping joint health and preventing wear and tear.
- Amino Acids for Rest: Bone broth is naturally rich in the amino acid glycine, which helps induce a state of calm, reduces anxiety, and improves sleep quality and mood.
- Digestive Health: Collagen also benefits the digestive system, helping to regenerate the cells of the intestinal lining.
- Source of Minerals: Provides essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus that contribute to strengthening bones.
🧑🍳 Cooking Tips: Grandma's Homemade Broth
The secret to extracting all the collagen and flavor is slow and prolonged cooking.
- Base Preparation: Place the carcass in a large pot and cover it with water. Add fresh seasonal vegetables (carrot, leek, celery, onion, and garlic).
- Long Cooking: Bring to a boil and skim off any impurities (foam) that rise to the surface. Simmer (minimum) for 1.5 to 2 hours. This prolonged time ensures that the collagen and minerals transfer to the liquid.
- Degreasing: Once ready, strain the broth. If you are looking for the healthier version, refrigerate it. When cold, the fat will solidify on the surface, allowing you to easily remove it with a spoon before reheating.
- Utilization: The meat left on the carcass can be shredded and used in the soup itself, or as a filling for croquettes and cannelloni.
🛒 Uses in the Kitchen

- Healthy Drink: Bone broth can be consumed as a nutritious and restorative drink, especially in winter or after intense training.
