Almost time to start making more. I make several pots of it over the winter, usually about 30-30# of 75% knuckles, the rest shanks.
Bones are cooked done for a minimum of 3 days but usually more. Most of the broth goes into other soups, much is consumed during the process and some is dehydrated into dry bullion.
Just a couple pics I s of the process. The bones are first roasted until warmed and then coated in tomato pasted and roasted until browned. This helps prevent any bitterness and provide a rich brown color to the broth and the acidity in the tomato helps extract the minerals from the bones. Over the days of simmering I also add a splash of organic apple cider vinegar to help leach the minerals from the bones.
This is some one of the concentrated and dehydrated broth going into the food processor and then the final bullion. This is unsalted.
Some of the the final results of the bone broth. I had an ailing parent out of state. This was my contribution to her and those helping with her recovery, she asked for soups. I also sent in freezer meals. No, that wasn't all just for a few people.
I also make bone broth broth from chicken and pork bones and vegetable broth from all my veggie clippings. I waste very little. All fat is skimmed off and rendered for tallow, lard and schmaltz.
