Recipe: Bone Marrow Soup

[Guest guest]

Benefits:

- Improves quality and longevity of life (it's also called Longevity Soup " )

- Tonifies the Jing, kidneys, bones, and brain

- Improves stomach function, digestion, absorption

 

Ingredients:

1 organic chicken, turkey, or lamb

3 quarts water

1 carrot

1 onion

2 celery sticks

2 Tbsp raw apple cider vinegar

astragalus

shittake mushrooms

rosemary

hawthorn berries (I didn't have these, so I left 'em out)

 

Method:

Cook or bake the meat in the oven, take the meat off the bones, and

break the bones in half with a knife. On the other hand, I went to

the butcher, asked for organic beef bones for marrow soup, and had

them chop the bones for me. I didn't bother cooking them, since they

were already meatless and chopped.

 

Cut up the veggies, combine with bones, water, and herbs in a crock

pot. Cook on low for 24-36 hours. If you'd like to cook on the

stovetop, bring to a boil and then simmer... be sure to keep adding

water, 2 times a day.

 

When done, strain the broth out and save; compost the solids. After

complete cooling in refrigerator, skim the fat off the top.

 

Dosage:

Use as a medicinal. 1/4 to 1/2 cup, one to two times a day, before

meals, i.e. lunch & dinner.

 

I froze mine in ice cube trays, and simply melt a cube in a cup of hot water.
