what is broth

Broth is a savory liquid made by simmering meat, fish, or vegetables in water for a short period of time. It can be eaten alone or used as a base for other dishes such as soups, gravies, and sauces. Broth is typically seasoned and salted and can be made from chicken, beef, fish, or vegetables. Broth is similar to stock, but it is cooked with meat for a shorter period of time, while stock is usually made with just bones for a longer period of time, resulting in a richer, deeper flavor and mouthfeel
