Since this mixture isn't quite as stiff as the real stuff and I don't want it to leak out of the baking paper, I actually staple the folded in sides.

I then put the loaf in the freezer for at least 1 night.

Add broth ingredients to water and bring to a boil.

Remove carefully from the broth (I use 2 spatulas) and cool.
