Instructions
Place the turkey carcass and giblets in a large stockpot. Add the onion, garlic, parsley, citrus peel, and bay leaves, then cover with the cold water.
Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 2 to 3 hours.
Discard the solids and strain the broth through a fine-mesh strainer into a large container. Ladle into jars. Once cool, remove the surface fat if desired. Refrigerate or freeze leftovers.
