Bone Broth 101 - Page 6

crunchymum · 09-15-2012, 04:21 PM

I think roasting makes all the difference in taste.

I cooked mine on the lowest heat setting on the stove for 2-3 days, iirc. The broth was so rich and flavorful... I would keep it going for awhile longer. But I don't think it gets that rich brown color and rich flavor without roasting.

Glitterfish · 09-15-2012, 04:26 PM

I started mine Wednesday night and strained in Saturday morning, and it was dark brown and rich, although not salty because I don't salt it until I use it. I didn't roast mine first, but some of the bones I saved from grilled steaks, so

I'd say keep it going for at least another day before trying it again.

Stove, simmering. Bones were raw.

Still trying to decide about leaving the stove on during church tomorrow.

PrincessAnika · 09-15-2012, 05:01 PM

i've got a batch of perpetual broth going in my crockpot. celery tops, onion, carrot ends, sea salt. decent flavor, going all day yest and today, have taken a few c out and replaced with water so i might have to add more salt. MUST.GET.FREEZER.BAGS.

i wish i could find my stock pot so i could make some soup too....instead of having to wait til my crockpot is empty

one more question, do you just roast beef bones before simmering or would roasting your chicken bones make your chicken broth more flavourful as well?

09-15-2012, 08:07 PM

I have been curious about this, too!

melliethepooh · 09-16-2012, 05:51 AM

Normally we roast a chicken and pick the meat off, so the bones are roasted. If you put a whole raw chicken in it will still taste good.

Also, chicken broth is milder tasting than beef broth, so for those who don't like their beef broth, give chicken a try before giving up.

3boysforme · 09-16-2012, 11:34 AM

Beef bone broth, day 3. It looks really good! It tastes pretty good too. My bones are still hard though, should I keep it going or call it a day?

Stiina · 09-16-2012, 12:10 PM

I didn't roast my bones and still got nice dark beef broth. I will definitely try that next time, though!!!

I definitely wouldn't want to just drink the beef broth.

But I know that sipping on chicken broth (like the dregs after chicken soup) is sooooo yummy.

I haven't had chicken for so long because we don't have our own yet and I can't bear to buy store-chicken. But I reeeeally want to try chicken broth for just drinking plain.

3boysforme · 09-16-2012, 12:17 PM

I like to drink chicken broth

. My beef broth, while it is good...its not something I would drink straight up. I will use it in soups, gravies and such though. I put a big ladle full in my spaghetti sauce to thin it out this morning.

charla · 09-16-2012, 12:21 PM

I haven't made beef broth yet, just chicken broth, but I'm wondering why you wouldn't drink beef broth. Is it too strong?

3boysforme · 09-16-2012, 02:33 PM

I think, for me, its just that I have never done beef bone broth before. I tend to need chicken broth in more recipes and the bones are easy to get. So I am used the taste of chicken broth. Beef broth is very different tasting. I am sure I will get used to it ans drink it straight eventually.

easygoinmomma · 09-16-2012, 06:41 PM

Stiina, have you thought about getting chicken from a Hutterite colony? Or does that bother you too?

raining_kisses · 09-17-2012, 06:09 AM

My beef broth has been going in the crock pot for two days. It smells....kind of bad. Not like spoiled meat, just....funky.

Dovenoir · 09-17-2012, 06:13 AM

Day 3 on the stove. Broth is at least brown now. Bones are still solid.
