15 Delicious Soups with a Homemade Bone Broth

October 16, 2018 | Search Recipes Here

What’s so great about bone broth? This health food is receiving plenty of attention from nutrition experts over recent years, and for a good reason. Bones contain gelatin and marrow which break down into collagen, an essential protein for human health. Eating more collagen in your diet improves bone density while keeping your skin looking youthful. Enjoying a cup of steaming hot bone broth on a winter morning is an ideal way to start your day. This nutrient-dense food provides your body with the energy you need to boost metabolic health and improve neurological function.

Making bone broth is easy. Visit your local butcher and buy a few pounds of beef, chicken, or lamb bones. Toss them into a crockpot with a few bay leaves, some cracked black pepper, a pinch of Himalayan pink salt and fresh vegetables like celery, carrots and an onion. Add 10 to 12-cups of water and bring to the boil.

When boiling, reduce the heat and let the broth simmer for 36 to 48-hours. During simmering, the bones release collagen into the broth. After the simmer phase is complete, remove the bones, vegetables, and herbs. Strain the mixture through cheesecloth and store in mason jars in your fridge.

The bone broth tastes fantastic on its own and makes a terrific stock for other soups. Here are 15 delicious soup ideas you can create using bone broth as a base.
