Description

MAMA Suppehøne, also known as Sopphöna or soup hen, is a mature hen specifically suited for slow cooking. Unlike regular roasting chicken, this hen has firmer meat and higher connective tissue content, making it ideal for soups, stews, and long-simmered broths.

This product is supplied frozen and includes the neck, but no giblets or innards. When cooked slowly over low heat, the hen releases natural collagen, resulting in a deep, rich, and gelatin-like broth commonly used in traditional home cooking.

Perfect for classic soups, stock preparation, and comfort dishes, soup hen is widely used in many cuisines where flavor and broth quality are essential.

Cooking note: This product is not suitable for roasting and must be thoroughly cooked.
