Bone Broth Recipe Directions
Here’s how we make our Bone Broth. We use either beef or chicken bones depending on your preference.
- Place bones into a slow cooker and cover with water. You can also roast your beef in the over at 350 for 30 mins to bring out more beef flavor.
- Add 2 tablespoons of organic apple cider vinegar we use Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar to water. This is essential to help to pull out important nutrients from the bones.
- You can add carrots, onions, celery, and Mediterranean sea salt, for added nutrients. ( based on your preference)
- Fill crockpot filtered water. Leave room for the broth to boil. We will also add more water if needed.
- Bring to a boil for a minimum of 4 hours and then reduce to “warm” for at least 24 hours. Remove scum as it arises.
- Cook slow and at low heat. Chicken bones can cook for 24 hours. Beef bones can cook for 48 hours. A low and slow cook time is necessary in order to fully extract the nutrients in and around the bone.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Strain broth using a metal strainer to remove all bits of the bones and vegetable. Pour into glass jars and enjoy. Keep for 5 days or freeze.
- Consume as often as you want by drinking it or use as a soup stock. You may want to add extra salt to taste
Additional Options:
- For some anti-inflammation add some turmeric to your recipe
- If you don’t want the fat (come on, it is good for you) – skim it off or take it off after it hardens in the fridge. We use ours for cooking oil.
