How to Make Bone Broth
Delicious and healthy bone broth is full of nutrition to help you battle your cold, flu, stomach bug...really, it's pretty fabulous for everything!
Ingredients
- 3.5-4 pounds beef bones or chicken bones
- 4-5 carrot small whole organic, tops included
- 1 onion medium white, peeled and quartered
- 3-4 cloves garlic peeled and left whole
- celery half a stalk, bottom part preferred
- 3-4 leaves bay leaf
- 12-14 cups of water
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 450 °F.
- Roast the bones and vegetables for 25-30 minutes, until browned and any meat on the outside is cooked. I like to leave the carrot tops on and let them cook into the broth, whose why organic is very important for those.
- Remove and place into a crockpot or a large stockpot on the stove. Add the water in and simmer for at least 24 hours, but 48 is better.
- Strain the solids out and store the broth in a closed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or simply freeze and use later.
Notes
- Calories and nutrition on this recipe are inaccurate as it calculates all the ingredients which you don't actually eat
