Bone broth is rich in minerals and provides a number of health benefits. It is rich in gelatin, glycine, and proline, which helps improve immune function and protects against inflammation and helps connective tissue. It can help heal our gut, reduce joint pain, and increase vitality. Bone broth can be used as a base for soups, stews, rice, beans, and even gravy.
This is a simple recipe for making your own bone broth. This is really easy to make and it doesn’t require any technical knowledge or fancy tools. All you will need is a slow cooker or crockpot and enough time to let the ingredients cook. You will also need a blender to puree the bones and cooking liquid into a paste. If you make your own bone broth, it will be much healthier and cheaper than the store bought varieties.
Ingrédients

- 2 pounds meaty bones such as short ribs
- 1/2 cup raw apple cider vinegar
- 4 quarts filtered water
- 3 celery stalks, halved
- 3 carrots, halved
- 3 onions, quartered
- Handful of fresh parsley
- Sea salt

- Place bones in a pot or a crockpot, add apple cider vinegar and water, and let the mixture sit for 1 hour so the vinegar can leach the mineral out of the bones.
- Add more water if needed to cover the bones.
- Add the vegetables bring to a boil and skim the scum from the top and discard.
- Reduce to a low simmer, cover, and cook for 24-72 hours (if you're not comfortable leaving the pot to simmer overnight, turn off the heat and let it sit overnight, then turn it back on and let simmer all day the next day)
- During the last 10 minutes of cooking, throw in a handful of fresh parsley for added flavor and minerals.
- Let the broth cool and strain it, making sure all marrow is knocked out of the marrow bones and into the broth.
- Add sea salt to taste and drink the broth as is or store in fridge up to 5 to 7 days or freezer up to 6 months for use in soups or stews.
