BONE BROTH - REUSING THE BONES?

That was some good information to learn!

---

Here on the homestead, we like real food and reusing and using as much as we can. If we harvest an animal to eat, we don't stop at just the meat. There are a lot more uses than just whatever meat may be on that animal. Lately, I've been working on learning how to tan some hides. Additionally, we love using the bones to make some very healthy broth.

BONE BROTH BENEFITS

These are the things that were once common years ago. Now, broth comes from the store, right? Well, not on our homestead.

With the rise in what I would call "fake food" and "compromised nutrition" we like taking matters into our own hands. For all of the supposed greatness of the intellect of man, we sure seem to be falling short on some issues. Have you ever noticed the incredible rise of very small children with mouths already full of fake, metal teeth. I don't think that they are just trying to look "crunk" or "gansta."

Much like other parts of our bodies, teeth need certain minerals and nutrients to stay healthy and avoid deterioration. Bone broth is one healthy way to not only improve the health of our teeth, but also our entire bodies. By slow-cooking bones, especially after soaking them in a mixture of vinegar and water, many necessary minerals and healthy compounds like proline, collagen, glycine and glutamine can be extracted from the bones and made available in the broth.

Especially as winter approaches, boosting the immune system and keeping the body nourishes is especially important, and making our own bone broth is one great way to accomplish this.

REUSING THE BONES

Until recently, we only used the bones once, and we thought that we had gotten all that we could from them. However, our researcher @mama-pepper came across some vital information. Apparently, you can use and reuse the bones. Bones from larger animals like cows can be used over ten times! Smaller animals, like chickens, usually exhaust their benefits after three times, but still! That's three times the benefits that we can now get from the same bones.

When considering how to get the most out of harvested animals, this is excellent information. As I said, we just learned about this. Is this also news to you? Have you ever made your own broth using bones, or do you remember your parents or grandparents making it? Did you already know that you could reuse bones in broth?

As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:
