Cooking Time -Â Approx. 2.5Â Hours
Skill Level -Â Easy
Serves -Â 6+
Ingredients:
2.5 - 3 pounds of Aurora View Farms Grass-Finished Soup Bones
1 Onion
2 Cloves Garlic
2 Carrots (chopped)
3 Celery Stalks (chopped)
1 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 Tsp Black Peppercorns
Salt to taste
8 cups of filtered water
Steps:Â
1. Put the bones in the Instant Pot - this should fill about half of the pot.
2. Add the vegetables, ACV, Salt, Pepper and any additional herbs your may wish to add.
3. Fill the Instant Pot with water to about 1 inch below the max-fill line.
4. Seal the lid and make sure the steam release knob is in the "sealed" position.
5. Set your Instant Pot to high pressure for 120 minutes. It will take some time for the pot to come to full pressure before the 120 minute countdown begins.
6. Once finished, allow for a full natural release to avoid a spraying bone broth mess.
7. Separate your bones, veg and spices from the broth with a strainer or cheesecloth.
8. Some folks like to allow the broth to completely cool and then scoop the fat off the top before storing, but we like to divide the broth into wide mouth mason jars, ensuring there is a good layer of fat on top. The fat will create an extra seal for the broth underneath and we just scoop this off before using. This will keep in the fridge for 5-7 days. You can also freeze for longer storage.Â
*For a slow cooker, simmer for 8 hours at least*
There are many of ways to incorporate bone broth into your cooking, such as soup bases, gravy and sauces, cooking grains and legumes, risotto, mashed potatoes, braising meat, or simply sip as a delicious savory drink.
Enjoy!
