How to freeze Instant Pot Chicken Stock

  1. Ladle the broth into mason jars using a wide mouth funnel.
  2. If you plan to freeze the instant pot chicken broth, leave at least 1 inch of head space to prevent cracking of the glass as the liquid expands. 
  3. The instant pot chicken broth can be frozen for up to 3 months.
  4. It can be defrosted overnight in the refrigerator, or on defrost in the microwave.

Update on freezing instant pot chicken broth

(updated 12/2018)

After having too many cracked jars, I am sad to say I no longer use this method. 

Instead, I pour the cooled instant pot chicken broth into freezer safe zip-top bags.

I get as much air out as possible and seal them.

I freeze them flat so they take up less space and defrost quickly.
