(by Shirley McNevich)
1 qt. chicken, beef, pork or turkey broth
1 tsp. salt
3 TBSP cornstarch
1/2 cup water
Put the broth in a saucepan and taste--if flat, add the tsp. of salt--if it tastes ok, do not add salt. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the water (add the water a small amount at a time so it doesn't get lumpy--stir until smooth). Heat broth on medium heat and add the cornstarch mixture to the broth--stir continually until it comes to a boil and thickens. Remove from heat and serve.
