Instead of Chicken stock
No vegetarian stock gives the same chicken body; vegetable stock is closest.
Vegetable stockUse the same weight. Lighter and less gelatinous; add a pinch of turmeric or extra bay leaf for colour and savouriness.
StockUse the same weight; check whether it is meat or vegetable. Adjust salt as brands vary.
WaterUse the same weight and add a bay leaf and a few black peppercorns. Much thinner; reduce salt and expect less body.
