How do you grind them? I simmered mine for so long but they are still very strong. I feel bad throwing them out. I dont know if you can re-use them for another pot?Is all the collagen now removed?

Try Kvass –

Because of the low acid nature of bone broth, you must pressure can broths.

2 hours, low pressure. Add 30 min if bones are frozen.

Does the garlic and herbs get roasted as well? I assume the vinegar and salt is added to crock pot? Ty

Sounds like you may not have added enough water. And make sure to cover the pot when boiling, then slightly ajar while simmering.

Sounds like you did well! While it’s not always gelatinous, it can still contain plenty of collagen.

It’s half a teaspoon in 20 cups. That I believe is 1/40 of a teaspoon per cup. It wouldn’t hurt the kid if he ate the entire 20 cups. Go to your kitchen and find a 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon. It’s very small. I put a couple of tablespoons per gallon in mine (that’s 16 cups so close enough for comparison) and i use plain old iodized sodium chloride. My blood pressure is 126/80, sodium count in my blood is dead in the middle of the acceptable range and I’m 57 yrs old, and weigh 164 lbs. By the way, bonebroth is healthy and if you salt it good its delicious.

Thank you. Well said. People have been severely misinformed about nutrition for decades. And mostly by corporations trying to market some new product as a healthier alternative to real food.

This type of fat is good for you. Just like Lard, butter, sardines, olive oil, avavados, and bacon grease. It’s amazing how people were duped into giving up these healthy nutritious fats in favor of a “healthy” alternative in vegetable oil. Which is basically poison. But anyways, don’t worry about it unless you don’t find it palatable. It can only make it better

I’m making it tonight started at 8:00pm, looks and smells so good

I use to get fish bones with the head from Central Market. I would call ahead to see if the seafood department was cutting snapper that day and if so to keep about 4 pounds of the bones with head aside for me. This fish broth is done in only 4 hours. Delicious!

I dry and grind the bones real fine, making a powder. I put a spoon full over my dog’s food plus in my smoothies.

I meant to ask if anyone grinds the softened beef bones and why if not?

Hi Ray … low is best.

I was wondering about the onion and garlic. Want to give to my dog but don’t think I will because of it.

I’m sorry but you think a half teaspoon salt for 20 cups of water is too much!

Joy: You can find those bones at Sprouts or Whole Foods. Ask the butcher to guide you to where they have them ( packed and frozen). I get there the bones and liver as well.

No worries, I put mine in the refrigerator & the fat floats to the top. It’s easy to remove this hard fat layer. Use a knife to lift up off the broth fluid. Sometimes it breaks in a few pieces & use your fingers. I find this method gets all the fat removed much easier.

I did not skim the fat while the broth was simmering. I’m afraid to drink it, as I don’t want to consume a lot of saturated fat.

I’d really appreciate your thoughts on this. Thank you!

Wonderful to hear, thank you Shannon!

Actually salt is good for your body if you use the right kinds (sea salt and pink Himalayan) those are natural electrolytes and good for your adrenals

Please don’t think that I’m blasting you for your choice to add so much salt. I just wanted to mention that you might be losing a major health benefit after you worked so hard to make this bone broth. Sounds like you’re going far too heavy on the sodium, and that will be highly likely to cause you some painful gas and headache side effects. If you want more flavor, try adding herbs and spices instead of all that harmful salt. Just a friendly suggestion from a lifelong healthcare worker.

Canned sardines and salmon are full of soft, edible bones.

Wonderful news, Polly!

Hi Jen … if you have a histamine sensitivity, you should avoid bone broth. While it can reduce gut inflammation, bone broth also is rich in the amino acid glycine. And unfortunately, glycine can be converted to oxalates and glutamate in the body.

Fabulous idea Barb!

Thank you! This seems almost intuitive to add the root vegetables. I wasn’t finding any recipes. I have some and am going to add.
