Boiled lamb neck broth is made by simmering lamb neck in water until the meat is tender. Skim off the foam as it cooks, then strain the liquid. Add aromatics such as onion or bay leaf if you want a more seasoned broth.
Boiled lamb neck broth works well in soups, rice dishes, and stews that benefit from a savory lamb flavor. Use it in place of water or another stock, and adjust the salt in the finished dish rather than seasoning the broth heavily.
No, boiled lamb neck broth is not necessarily the same as lamb bone broth. Neck broth is made by cooking a meaty neck portion, while bone broth is typically simmered from bones for longer to draw out gelatin and other compounds.
To make boiled lamb neck broth less greasy, chill it until the fat on top firms, then lift the fat off with a spoon. For a quicker option, skim visible fat from the surface while the broth is hot.
Boiled lamb neck broth keeps for about 3–4 days in the refrigerator when cooled promptly and stored in a covered container. Reheat only the portion you need until steaming hot, rather than repeatedly warming the whole batch.
Yes, boiled lamb neck broth freezes well. Cool it first, portion it into freezer-safe containers with room for expansion, and thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating thoroughly. Small portions are convenient for adding to soups or sauces.
Boiled lamb neck broth can turn cloudy when it boils vigorously, because agitation disperses proteins and fat through the liquid. Keep it at a gentle simmer, skim the foam, and strain it after cooking for a clearer result.
No, you do not need to salt boiled lamb neck broth heavily while it cooks. Light seasoning or no salt makes it easier to use in different recipes, since the final dish may already contain salty ingredients.
Yes, boiled lamb neck broth can replace beef stock in many savory recipes, but it gives the dish a distinct lamb flavor. It is especially suitable for hearty soups and stews; use a milder stock if you want a more neutral taste.
It is safer and better quality to reheat only the amount of boiled lamb neck broth you plan to use. Cool the remaining broth promptly, keep it refrigerated, and avoid repeated cycles of warming and cooling.

Boiled lamb neck broth is the savory cooking liquid made by simmering lamb neck, often with its bone, in water. The cut gives the broth a deep, meaty flavour, and a longer simmer can lend it a slightly gelatinous body.
It can be sipped on its own or used as a base for soups, grains and stews. In lamb-eating kitchens around the world, it is a warming way to make use of the flavour from a bony cut; add herbs or vegetables to suit the meal. It provides protein and minerals while remaining relatively low in fat. For a lighter broth, chill it and lift off any fat that sets on the surface.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
