What is bone broth?


Bone broth is made by simmering animal bones - but while chicken and beef bone broths are common, vegetarians and vegans don't miss out - you can actually enjoy delicious vegetable broths that are still rich in protein but are made from veggies! Some people prefer to consume broth on its own as a warming and hearty drink, but it is also perfect for working into soups, casseroles and anything you'd ordinarily use a traditional stock in.

Bone broth benefits include its traditional immune-boosting properties, ability to help support gut health and the digestive system, and how many vitamins and minerals are packed into each serve. Wondering how to make bone broth? Well it can be a pretty intensive process, as most bone broth recipes require you to slow cook ingredients for hours at a time, adding herbs and spices until you reach your desired flavour and consistency. Thankfully there are so many delicious, hearty, heathy and natural bone broth powders on the market now!
