"I know I should use it, but I don’t know what I can do with bone broth."
We hear this statement almost every Saturday at the Farmers Market. It is perfectly normal to see bone broth as a weird health food. It sounds gross to some, but if made well, is no different in flavor than a good chicken or beef stock. (Not the over salted stuff with bullion as its base.)
Bone Broth is a Centuries-old Food and Medicine
Bone broth has been around for thousands of years, as long as people have raised animals for food. It is used as a base in many traditional dishes around the globe. If you've ever had Vietnamese Pho, you've had bone broth! Bone broth has also been used medicinally for just as long. Anyone who has had a cup of good broth when they are feeling bad knows it can bring comfort and relief!
"My Grandmother used to make that when I was little."
This is another common remark I hear from people at the market. This was true of just a few generations ago, when people typically used every bit of the animals they raised for food. Now we are rediscovering bone broth as a great addition to our diet. It delivers high quality bio available collagen protein right to where it is needed! For most of us, a cup every other day is plenty to keep up collagen levels.
So, how do we use Bone Broth?
Bone broth is a delicious nutritious warm beverage that can provide a boost in the morning or promote relaxation in the evening. It is also a wonderful nutrient-rich cooking base for making rice, quinoa, smoothies and soups, as well as for sautéing vegetables and making sauces. So how do we use it? Well, here are several ways!
