A week ago I Purchased a 2 to 2 1/2 pound pork roast, cubed the meat to
make a curry and boiled the large bone with salt, pepper and few herbs.
Boiled this for about 4 1/2 hours, all the meat was off the bone and
had nice fragrance. After straining well I poured it into a container
and stored in the fridge for a few days. This is the first time I have
done this and wanted to make a stock for future recipes. Removing the
stock from the refrigerator and checking the consistency found it to be
very gelatinous and thick. Is this normal? Any suggestions on how to
keep this, does it freeze well and would it be good to make a bean
soup, maybe recipes around this would be helpful. Many thanks...
