Fellow cooks, if you want one single tip to immediately improve your dishes, it's this: Make your own stocks.

Now is a GREAT time to make turkey stock. There are a couple ways - don't throw the carcass away. Use that. If you didn't do a turkey or don't have the carcass, nowadays you can easily find turkey necks and backs for CHEAP at a lot of grocery stores.

And I have just discovered using the slow cooker for making stock. It's SOO easy. I just put on another batch with a couple pounds of turkey backs (that I paid $1.25 for), an onion, carrot, celery, bay leaf, and some peppercorns. Let it simmer on low for 12-24 hours.
