Quick Skimming

This is a technique used by chefs to remove traces of fat from hot strained stock.
It is quicker than leaving the stock to chill overnight before removing the layer of solidified fat.

Skim fat from stock using paper towel

While the stock is hot, pass a folded paper towel through it. The paper towel will absorb any excess fat.
