Description

Poultry drippings are the liquids released during the cooking of poultry such as chicken, turkey, duck, or hen. These drippings contain a mixture of water, fat, dissolved proteins, and concentrated flavors that come from the meat and skin of the bird while it cooks, whether roasted, grilled, stewed, or pan-cooked.

Origin: Poultry drippings are a natural byproduct of the cooking process and are traditionally used in various cuisines around the world. They are the perfect base for preparing sauces, broths, stocks (fumet), or for adding more flavor to rice dishes, stews, and other dishes that include poultry.

Properties: These drippings provide an intense and characteristic flavor that enhances the taste profile of any preparation. Containing natural fats and gelatin released from the bird's collagen, they help give texture and body to sauces and broths. Furthermore, being a concentrate of the poultry's flavor, they allow for enhancing intensity without adding artificial ingredients.

Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: depending on the region, poultry drippings may also be known as caldo reducido de pollo o pavo, jugo de ave, líquido de cocción de pollo, or simply caldo de ave concentrado.
