Whats All The Beef About Bone Broth?

What’s All The Beef About Bone Broth?

It's always nice to use the goodness from the whole bird, fish or 4 legged animal. Respect the animal that provided you and your family with not only an amazing social ‘coming together’ over dinner but also the vitamins, minerals and energy it has gifted you through its body. So why not celebrate further by using the carcass to make bone broth?

Basically bone broths are full of amazing nutrients in their most absorbent and affordable forms. Plus it’s super easy to make!

Broths are super helpful in supporting the liver with phase II detoxification where heavy metals, by-products made by ourselves and medications are safely transported from the liver to the digestive system to be exited from the body. If your liver is struggling to complete phase 2 liver detoxification these substances either remain in the liver and damage liver cells or are circulated around the body to damage cells wherever they please!

Always use organic bones and boil for at least two days, add a good glug of apple cider vinegar that also states ‘with the mother’. Firstly this helps the vitamins and minerals leach out of the bones and into the water for us to absorb and secondly ‘with the mother’ to add the all important ‘pre-biotic’ element into our food.

Season with root veg such as parsnips, celery, carrots or turnips or celeriac, add herbs to the broth to vary flavour and add additional benefits such as:

You can also jazz them up with spices like coriander, lemongrass, lime, chilli and ginger, throw some stir fry veg in and hey presto, you have a Thai Style Ramen Soup.

Alternatively, simply make a plain one and separate into ice cubes trays. Every time you cook a stew, Bolognese, curry or stir fry you can simply add a few cubes meaning you can easily get it into yours and your loved ones food every day - how blooming amazing is that?!
