Bone broth is full of flavor and nutrition, therefore cooking with broth as often as possible can be a wonderful source of nutrients. Homemade broth is rich in gelatin that will support digestion and the health of your skin. Bone broth is packed with amino acids. <\/span><\/p>\n

Glycine (the protein that makes the broth gelatinous when chilled) is full of collagen which is anti-aging and healing for your digestive system (helps leaky gut syndrome) and builds healthy skin, hair and nails. In addition, the gelatin can reduce joint pain and inflammation, great for women in their forties<\/a> like me!<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are on a tight budget<\/a>, make sure to learn how to make a good bone broth as it is a very inexpensive way to enhance dishes. Remember, bone broth is an <\/span>excellent<\/b> source of the vitamins and minerals needed to build strong healthy bones. This is because it is a great source of calcium, magnesium, phosphorous as well as the collagen and amino acids mentioned above.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nursing moms<\/b> can reap plenty of benefits from drinking a cup or two of bone broth daily. Not only will it support your and your baby\u2019s immune system but also will keep your mineral levels high and help keep you hydrated.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve made chicken broth mostly over the years. It\u2019s pretty straightforward and I make chicken often throughout the week, so it only made sense to use the bones for broth. <\/span><\/p>\n

However, making beef broth as simple it may sound, always left me second guessing my technique. I\u2019d start with grass fed beef bones and follow broth making techniques, but somewhere along the way I felt the broth smelled, well, <\/span>gross<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The SECRET:<\/h2>\n

That is until I started roasting my beef bones before making the broth<\/strong>. Roasting was the key for me! Once I started doing this, my broth no longer had the strange smell that left me wondering if I had done it wrong.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what I do for a simple but wonderful broth:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If at all possible purchase a variety of bones including neck, knuckle and marrow bones <\/span>(if you make chicken broth, as strange as it sounds use chicken feet if you can find them<\/span><\/i>). This will produce a very rich broth; however, if you can only get one variety of bones, it\u2019s fine! I\u2019ve even made broth with the bones leftover from ribs or steak. It\u2019s all good.<\/span><\/p>\n
