Bone Broth Recipe


Ball Family Bone Broth Recipe
Ingredients
One used pastured chicken carcass
Chicken feet and or neck
Onion, halved with peel
Garlic 4-5 cloves with peel 
2 celery
2 carrots
Tablespoon whole peppercorns
Tablespoon pink Himalayan salt
Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar "with the mother"
Bay leaf

Put all the ingredients in a crock pot and fill with water until just covered. Set on high and cook 18-24 hours. It will have reduced quite a bit and turned a rich caramel color. 
Strain everything out with a fine mesh strainer, you can add more salt to taste. 
Put into jars. 
Refrigerate or freeze (after cooled completely) in freezer safe containers. 

You know you have a good broth when it gels up when completely chilled. 

If you can, use organic produce and pastured bones. It highly increases the quality and nourishment of your broth! 

Check out our friends at Sew the Land. They have a great youTube video on How To Make Bone Broth. I believe our recipes are very similar :) And the beauty of bone broth is you can easily adapt it to your own tastes or preferences.
