Sometimes these terms are used interchangeably but chicken stock and chicken broth are very different. Chicken broth is made from chicken meat while stock is made from chicken bones. As a result chicken broth has a richer flavor because the gelatin is released from the bones as they simmer for a long time. You don’t want to use chicken broth in place of broth in most recipes. For example chicken soup calls for broth because you don’t want the richness of the broth to overpower it. However if a recipe calls for chicken broth and you only have broth you can add a little more flavor by simmering the broth with vegetables like carrots onions celery leeks herbs and garlic.

“It’s hard to believe how good this soup is considering it’s made with just six ingredients. The bok choy simmered in chicken broth with Asian flavors is outstanding. The heat added by the addition of red pepper flakes makes for a warming satisfying bowl of soup.” —Joan Velush
