Category: Soups
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

2 quarts chicken broth
1 turkey carcass, all meat removed
1 onion, halved, plus 1 onion, minced
1 carrot, halved lengthwise, plus 1 carrot, minced
1 whole stalk celery, plus 1 more stalk, minced
2 bay leaves
3 cups dark turkey meat
2 garlic cloves, smashed
2 tbsp olive oil
1 carrot, minced
1 stalk celery, minced
Leftover gravy, if any
3 cups leftover cooked side vegetables, diced or frozen vegetable soup mix, thawed
Leftover stuffing
1 tbsp chopped fresh sage leaves

Put chicken broth, turkey, onion halves, carrot halves, 1 celery stalk, and 1 bay leaf in a large stock pot. Bring to a boil, then simmer about 1 1/2 hours. Finely dice the remaining onion, carrot and celery and reserve.

Dice the turkey meat. Make sure meat pieces are no larger than the size of a soup spoon. (If preparing soup the next day, be sure to store leftover turkey meat in an airtight container before placing it in the refrigerator, top with 1 or 2 ladles full of broth to keep meat moist.)

Before straining broth, remove large bones and carcass with tongs. Strain the broth through a sieve, covered with wet cheese cloth. Discard the solids. Transfer broth to a bowl set in a bath of ice water, which will cool the broth quickly and help keep it fresher longer. This can be done the night before and stored in the refrigerator until the next day.

In a large soup pot, heat garlic cloves in the olive oil. Allow to brown slightly and add minced carrots, celery, onion. Sweat over medium-low heat until softened, about 7 or 8 minutes.

Add the chopped sage to the soup pot along with the turkey broth and the remaining bay leaf, diced vegetables, gravy, stuffing and diced turkey meat. Bring to a simmer. (If using the thawed frozen vegetables, simmer until cooked. Turn the heat off and cover. Allow to sit and steam for 5 to 7 minutes. Let simmer for 5 more minutes and serve.
