🥡 Storage

• Allow the mixture to cool, then transfer it to an airtight container.
• Refrigerate for 3-5 days.

♨️ Reheating

• Gently reheat the mixture in a saucepan over low heat, stirring as needed, before using it if your recipe requires it warm.
• If you're adding it directly to a casserole, soup, or slow cooker recipe, reheating it separately usually isn't necessary.

❄️ Freezing

• Freeze in a freezer-safe container or zip-top freezer bag for up to 2-3 months.
• Thaw in the refrigerator before using.
• The texture may change slightly after freezing and thawing, so stir it well before adding it to your recipe.

💡 Tips for Best Results

• Whisk continuously as you add the broth and milk to help prevent lumps.
• Bring the mixture only to a low boil and continue whisking until thick.
• Remember that this is a condensed soup substitute, so the finished mixture should be thick.
• Choose broth and optional add-ins that complement the final recipe.

🍳 Alternate Cooking Methods

♻️ Leftovers

• Use leftover condensed soup substitute in casseroles, soups, creamy chicken dishes, or other recipes calling for canned condensed cream soup.
• Small amounts can also be added to a creamy sauce or gravy-style dish where the flavors work together.

📝 Notes

• Makes about 1 cup.
• One batch can be used in place of one can of condensed cream soup.
• Fresh or dried herbs, celery, mushrooms, pieces of chicken, onions, chopped shrimp, or shredded cheese can be added for flavor.
• Another flavor of broth or water can be used in place of the chicken broth.
