Why does chicken stock come in such large containers? I don't get it. I usually only need a cup or so for my recipe and then the rest of it rots before I can use it. I just realized today that I have two cartons of rotten chicken stock in my fridge and I just opened a brand new one for lunch today.
I can't offer the why but I can offer a solution that has served me well! After I open a new carton of stock, I pour the remainder into separate bags with 1 or 2 cup measurements in each freezer bag. Then when it's time to use more stock, I can pull the bag out, drop it in hot water to defrost (takes 5 minutes) and use it up! Hope that serves you as well as it has me :)
