chicken stock VS. chicken broth.

Q: What is the difference between chicken stock and chicken broth? If I don't have time to make stock, can I use canned chicken broth and alter it in some way for use as chicken stock? Becky O'Reilly, Phoenix, AZ

AskFN: Chicken stock tends to be made more from bony parts, whereas chicken broth is made more out of meat. Chicken stock tends to have a fuller mouth feel and richer flavor, due to the gelatin released by long-simmering bones.


Stock is the foundation of Cuisine.

Broth is the liquid in a soup.


I always tell my students the difference between stock and broth is that broth can be served as is. You enhance the flavor by the addition of meat. The seasoning has been adjusted. It can be a complete soup.

Whereas the stock cannot. It is the basic liquid made from bones and vegetables and aromatics. You can turn stock into broth but not the other way around.

If you use broth to make sauces I would be careful of the salt content, because ususally there is an addition of alot more salt in broth as opposed to stock. Broth is more flavorful.
