RE: Carcass is not a dirty word - make your own soup stock!
Start calling it a skeleton...see what happens, LOL! I actually pressure cook my stock. It is quicker that way, and I get enough calcium etc out of the carcass, that the bones become soft.
My dachshunds LOVE me when I make stock, because they get to eat the bones once they cool! Everybody is happy. I refrigerate my stock overnight. This allows me to remove any fat from the top of the kettle, before I use, or freeze, the stock.
Nice, I don't have a pressure cooker but eventually will get one I am sure. I don't mind having the big stock pot going for a day or two though, I love the way it makes my house smelL :)
Look at garage sales. I have picked up three 16 quart pressure cookers that way. I have three smaller electric pressure cookers, two were from thrift shops. Very handy.
The nutrition in the broth is better with the quick cooking, and the smell with steam behind it (sadly not steemit, LOL) is sublime.
I made beans last night, in one hour in the pressure cooker, from dried beans, and they were perfect!
