Apple cider vinegar is often considered healthier, while white vinegar is budget-friendly.

Start with a bunch of chicken bones, including chicken feet and wings.

Parboil the bones and trimmings by placing them in a pot, filling with water, and bringing to a boil for about 5 minutes.

Strain out the liquid and clean each piece of chicken under running water to remove scum and coagulated blood.

Return the cleaned bones and trimmings to a pot and fill with water.

Add 240 milliliters of rice wine or sake (or vinegar) to the pot.

Cook the mixture down for about 10 to 12 hours, keeping an eye on it to ensure safety.

After 10 to 12 hours, strain the broth using cheesecloth over a strainer to remove impurities.

Cover the strained broth and place it in the fridge until it becomes gelatinous.

After refrigerating overnight, check the broth; it should have a gelatinous texture.

To use the broth, heat it in a pot until it becomes liquid again, adding seasoning as desired.
