Equipment

  • 1 large pot or slow-cooker or pressure cooker
  • 1 large strainer

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs bones
  • 2 oz apple cider vinegar
  • 3 cups chopped veggies you have to use up I like carrots, onion, celery, parsley always
  • 1/2 cup chopped roots I like turmeric root, ginger root, garlic
  • 2 tbsp pink Himalayan salt
  • 2 tbsp black peppercorns
  • 10-12 cups water, enough to cover everything

Instructions
 

  • place bones & ACV into a pot & cover bones with water & let it soak  for 15 min
  • Then I bring it to a low/ medium boil. When you see bubbles forming around the edges I skim that off with a spoon  & let it low boil until the bubbles are gone.  no hard boil can destroy delicate minerals & break the collagen bonds 
  • Then add all the veggies, roots, and herbs & fill the pot with water, turn it on low & let it cook.  For chicken: low for 24-32 hrs. For beef: low for 8-12 hrs (no longer or beef broth can release factors that can cause a histamine response). For bison: low for 48-72 hrs ( I know but that thicker bones need more time if you want true bone broth).
  • Then you strain & store! Fridge for 2 weeks & in the freezer for 6 months
