Broth?

Ah, I didnt realise you were in the US.

 

so whats the best way to make your own bone broth ?

 

Generally just by boiling (and then simmering) meat bones with some low carb vegetables. Traditionally broths were a convenient way of extracting some nutrition from bones, where those nutrients are otherwise hard for us to access and would typically go to waste. The nutrients come from mostly from the marrow and connective tissues, as well as residual meat on the bone and minerals from the bone itself.

When boiled up like this, some proteins fats and minerals are released into the broth. In particular, large marrow containing bones have a lot of nutrients that are otherwise fairly inaccessible. These are best cut up before making broth, and butchers will often sell cut up bones like this fairly cheaply.

Here are a couple of examples. Most bone broth recipes follow these general lines:

I use the Knorr brand cubes. Not like homemade, but not so bad. I use them for the salt and to just have a taste of something. I sometimes add salt substitute for the potassium.

 

Chicken breast might be $12/lb but you wouldn't use that for broth. Thighs are a whole lot cheaper and regularly come on sale for $1.89/lb at Superstore. Check out Walmart too. Making home made would solve your celiac issue. I know, I know, can't make it myself, but why not? Do you not have a stove/pot/slow cooker/fridge? Or just don't want to? It's difficult to provide suggestions when you keep throwing up roadblocks.

 

Thanks for clarifying. (I apologize, I thought you were in Canada. Superstore is a chain of stores in Canada known as either Real Canadian Superstore, Extra Foods, No Frills and I believe also Save On Foods stores.)

In the USA, there is LonoLife bone broth. It comes in single serving packets, k-cups, or a tub. It also comes in 3 flavors. I forgot about it because when I fast I also protein restrict. Here’s the site
