Bone broth has long been a staple in kitchens of home cook’s for many generations past. If you’re a cook who’s made your own broth, you’ll be well acquainted with the time demanded to coax delicious flavors, and yield the soothing properties, from traditional ingredients used in bone broth.
Typically, bone broth will involve a long process of simmering chicken, beef or pork bones, vegetables, herbs, and aromatics in a large stockpot on the stovetop for 12-24 hours. The bones and vegetables are removed from the liquid, leaving a deep, rich, golden broth that can be used as a culinary ingredient or as a savory hot beverage.
Taking Stock Food’s bone broth available in Mastel’s frozen section, is locally-made in St. Paul, slow-simmered for 12 hours, using locally-raised organic chicken and vegetables. We use a raspberry rhubarb vinegar to further break down the bones, effectively extracting every last mineral from the bones.
Taking Stock Food’s broth is rich in nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus, as well as collagen, amino acids, and electrolytes. These nutrients, along with the other properties of bone broth, such as collagen, amino acids and electrolytes, have been used holistically in the healing of deficiencies like pain and inflammation, cramps, muscle soreness, brittle nails, periodontal disease, anxiety, depression, allergies, and IBS.
