Yesterday I spent hours simmering organic chicken bones to make a chicken stock. I further reduced the stock to make it more concentrated/gloopy and transferred it to a container - meaning to freeze it when chilled. However, I forgot to do this! It was still beside the sink when I discovered it this afternoon. My kitchen is cool and it is still spring here, i.e. the conditions are not warm/hot.
So, some 24 hours on, I have just placed it in the freezer. 2 questions:-
1. Will it be OK to use or gone bad? (I have lost my sense of smell so don't have that detecting facility)
2. Stock can be kept up to 3 months in the freezer...should I reduce that to 2 months because I have left it out?
